Summary/Abstract: In memory of Miloš Crnjanski and his work, and to encourage the development of our literature by rewarding works published in the Serbian literary space, the Matica srpska, in cooperation with the “Days of Miloš Crnjanski” event, founded a permanent annual award in 2019 named the “Infinite Blue Circle”. Each year, on November 30, the anniversary of the author’s death, the award is granted for a novel published between November 1 of the previous year and November 1 of the current year. The judging panel consists of five members appointed by the Board of Directors of the Matica srpska, at the recommendation of the Matica srpska Presidential Board (three members) and the Program Committee of the event “Days of Milos Crnjanski” (two members). Panel members are elected every four years, and the fact that they hail from Serbia, the Republika Srpska, and Montenegro is a symbolic sign of the integrity of our national and cultural space.
