The Anchored World Longlisted for a 2023 PEN AMERICA Award

We are thrilled to announce that The Anchored World by Jasmine Sawers has made the longlist for the 2023 PEN AMERICA/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Short Story Collection!

Making this longlist is a big honor, and we are so proud that Jasmine’s book is getting this national recognition. It’s also wonderful to see the books of so many small and mid-size presses included in this year’s longlists. The shortlist and winner will be announced in February and early March, respectively. Congratulations to Jasmine and their fellow longlist authors!
