Jamir Nazir is the overall winner of the 2026 Commonwealth Short Story Prize.

The Chair of the judging panel, Louise Doughty, together with the 2026 panel of judges, said: ‘We are hugely proud of our shortlist, regional winners and our overall winner, "The Serpent in the Grove" by Jamir Nazir, is an original, poetic and deeply moving story.’

Jamir has been selected as the winner from 7,806 entries from across the Commonwealth. His story, ‘The Serpent in the Grove’, explores betrayal, survival and the stubborn force of a woman’s will in a rural Trinidadian setting.

The announcement was made during a film documenting the five regional winners of the 2026 Commonwealth Short Story Prize. Watch it here:

A decade apart, same conversations.

Unfortunately, I am the Doctor that would listen and do something about it

Saw a 3 yr who was assaulted by her uncle at the Paediatric clinic. I didn't talk too much, I just took her mum to the sexual assault center

Mother was begging me not to take it too far
I took it too far

When I was young, I was horrible at chess.

But now, after years of dedication, daily practice, and coaching, I am no longer young.

Morning devotions in Nigerian households were the original breeding ground for indirect jabs.

Your mum will be praying for you in presence of everyone and randomly say, “Father remove every spirit of laziness, stubbornness and wasted potential from his life,” and suddenly you’re wondering when you offended her.

I enjoy solitude a little too much, I'm not sure it's a good thing tbh.

"Per aspera ad astra" is so profoundly poetic. Through thorns, to the stars. All the way.
