The Tadeusz Bradecki Foundation has awarded the inaugural Tadeusz Bradecki Prize to Clare Pollard for The Modern Fairies (Fig Tree) for its ‘history and magic, novelistic depth and sharpness of fable’. Created to honour the late Tadeusz Bradecki – international theatre director, actor and writer – the Prize is awarded annually for a book in which fiction and non-fiction writing combine in an original and exciting way.
