Winners Announced in the Ninth Annual Solas Awards

 

Winners of the Ninth Annual Solas Awards for Best Travel Story of the Year were announced March 1, 2015 on BestTravelWriting.com by the editors of Travelers' Tales. Grand Prize winner Amy Gigi Alexander collected $1,000 for “Oranges and Roses,” her extraordinary account of being embraced by Senegalese immigrants in Paris and indigenous people in Panama. Katherine Jamieson won the silver award and $750 for “Remember This Night,” her funny and evocative tale of pizza night with a family in Guyana. Erin Byrne took the silver and $500 for “Deep Travel, Notre Dame,” her introspective exploration of Paris’s famous cathedral and the personal tensions it represents.

More than 200 entries in 21 categories kept the judges busy. The stories this year were especially strong, making decisions in all categories very difficult. As usual, not every story that deserved an award received one. Here's the complete list of winners. Winning stories are posted on BestTravelWriting.com and many will appear in future Travelers' Tales books.
