The International Literary Flame Award was awarded tonight to the writer Olga Tokarčuk in Budva, on the stage between the churches.
Tokarčuk is a world writer and winner of the 2018 Nobel Prize for Literature.
The International Award "Literary Flame" was named after Mario Vargas Ljosa's thesis that "literature is an eternal and unquenchable flame".

Ljosa is also the head of the jury that made the decision in awarding the prize to the Polish writer.
The award is unique in the world due to the fact that a Nobel laureate is the regular president of the jury, and it has become internationally recognized for the series of winners who belong to the very top of world literature in the world.
The prestige of the award is best expressed by the names of previous winners. In addition to Ljosa, it was also awarded to the most important names in world literature, such as the Italian writer Claudio Magris, the Turkish Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk, the Polish writer Adam Zagajevski, prominent Canadian and international poetess, prose writer and essayist Margaret Atwood, then great world writers Gabriel Zaid, Irene Vallejo and Javier Serkas.
