The Asher Award was a biennial Australian literary award administered by the Australian Society of Authors between 2005 and 2017. It was established by the Australia Council after a bequest from the late author Helen Asher. The amount of $12,000 was awarded to “a female author whose work carries an anti-war theme”.[1]
