We are thrilled to announce that\u00a0The Paris Review<\/i>\u00a0has won the\u00a02024 ASME Award for Fiction<\/a>, marking the second year in a row that the magazine has received the honor. The three prizewinning stories are Rivers Solomon\u2019s \u201cThis Is Everything There Will Ever Be<\/a>,\u201d a disarmingly warm portrait of \u201cjust another late-forties dyke entirely too obsessed with basketball, dogs, and memes\u201d; \u201cMy Good Friend<\/a>,\u201d Juliana Leite’s English-language debut, translated from the Portuguese by Zo\u00eb Perry, a story written in the form of an elderly widow\u2019s Sunday-evening diary entry (\u201cAbout the roof repair, I have nothing new to report\u201d) that turns into a story of mostly unspoken, mutual decades-long love; and James Lasdun\u2019s \u201cHelen<\/a>,\u201d in which a man writing about his parents\u2019 upper-class milieu in seventies London\u2014the time of the IRA\u2019s mainland campaign in Britain\u2014stumbles upon the journals of a family friend, a woman who lives in what the narrator calls a \u201cstate of incandescent, almost spiritual horror.\u201d All three stories will be unlocked from behind the paywall this week, and you can also listen to Rivers Solomon’s story on our podcast here<\/a>. Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
