Memoir Magazine has announced the 2022 Winners of the Memoir Book Prize:
First Place
The View From Breast Pocket Mountain by Karen Hill Anton
Second Place
Animal Bodies: On Death, Desire, and Other Difficulties by Suzanne Roberts
Third Place
Finding the Right Words: A Story of Literature, Grief, and the Brain by Cindy Weinstein and Bruce L. Miller
They also eliminated the ‘honorable mention’ category this year and instead created 23 specific categories with which to recognize entrants. Four of those selected are currently unpublished manuscripts, providing authors with an avenue for (hopefully) finding a publishing home for their works.
