CWA Gold Dagger
This decision of the CWA committee reflected a long-running concern over the status of translations. New sponsorship and new timing of the awards suggested that this would be an appropriate moment for such a change. And it’s somewhat ironic to face the "Little Englander" charge that has been made in
some opinion pieces. Even with its changed terms, the Gold Dagger is more open than other literary prizes such as the Orange (no men) or the Man Booker (no US fiction).
In fact, the Gold Dagger is open to anyone publishing crime fiction anywhere in the world--they just have to be writing in English.
