The best debut of the book autumn
The Literature Prize of the Jürgen Ponto Foundation honors authors who have already convinced a publisher of their first work, but whose actual publication is still pending. The prize is endowed with 15,000 euros. In the long history of the award, honorees have included Einar Schleef, Barbara Köhler, Arnold Stadler, and more recently Deniz Ohde, Kim de l’Horizon, and Charlotte Gneuß. In 2024, the Jürgen Ponto Foundation awards Clemens Böckmann for the debut novel "What You Can Get" (Hanser). The jury, composed of literary critic and author Katrin Schumacher, author Miku Sophie Kühmel, and Literature House director Hauke Hückstädt, are certain: "‘What You Can Get’ promises to be one of the most exciting books of the year. With his debut, Clemens Böckmann comes close to one of literature's highest goals, making the invisible visible." An evening with an award ceremony and a reading by Clemens Böckmann.
