Past winners have included Sławomir Mrożek, Zbigniew Herbert, Adam Zagajewski, Jarosław Marek Rymkiewicz, Stefan Chwin, Jerzy Pilch, Huelle, Stasiuk, Olga Tokarczuk, Tomasz Różycki, Jacek Dehnel, Jolanta Stefko, Mikołaj Łoziński and most recently Jacek Dukaj. It is the oldest independent award in Polish literature.[1]
