Is the Villarautia the most important award for books written in Spanish?
I know the Cervantes, the Planeta, the Gallego but I admit I had never heard before of this Mexican award. Anyway I have voted the Goncourt and the Hugo.
"He had but one eye, and the popular prejudice runs in favour of two."
These are the awards that have been nominated by the Book Club members, rather than most important ones.
Thanks for your vote!
