TEL AVIV — The Jerusalem Prize for Literature has been given to Czechoslovak novelist Milan Kundera, the awards panel announced on Wednesday.

The $5,000 prize is presented every two years at the Jerusalem International Book Fair to a writer whose work exemplifies the freedom of the individual. Its most recent winners were Trinidad-born novelist V.S. Naipaul in 1983 and British novelist Graham Greene in 1981.
