text: # Prix Jean Freustié
  
  The Prix Jean-Freustié is a French literary prize created in 1987 by Christiane Teurlay-Freustié, second wife of writer and publisher Jean Freustie (1914–1983) to which it pays tribute, and his friends Nicole and Frédéric Vitoux as well as writer Bernard Frank. It rewards a French-speaking writer for a prose work: a novel, short story, autobiography, biography or essay. The prize is awarded annually.
  
  The Prix Jean Freustié Foundation, under the aegis of the Fondation de France, was created thanks to the generosity of Christiane Teurlay-Freustié, her founder who died in 2010. The annual grant is 20,000 euros.
