The aim of the contest is to reward the best literary works submitted to it, and at the same time to promote a literary genre with little tradition in Spain, the novelette or long story, which, for lack of a suitable term for its translation, we will call “noveleta”.
The “noveletas” must be written in Spanish or Basque.
With the deadline for entries for the I TARTALO GASTEIZ Novelette Competition now closed, we thank the participation of 178 works, with the following origin:
- 98 Spanish, representing 15 communities and one autonomous city; and
- 80 from abroad, from a total of 16 countries (Germany, Argentina, Bolivia, Canada, Cuba, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, USA, France, Mexico, Panama, Switzerland, Uruguay and Venezuela).
