I just checked out the list of recipients for this prize. Almost six Nobel Prize poets are awarded: Heaney, Montale, Neruda, Brodsky, Transtromer. And some rumoured shortlist like Senghor, Dao, Adonis, Ritsos, Auden. I don't think there's any prize for poets with such awesome recipients. Fantastic.
