The Premio Azorín de Novela (Azorín Prize for Best Novel) is one of the most important literary awards for works written in the Spanish language. It was originally created by Spain's Ministry of Information and Tourism in 1970.[1] The modern form of the award was created in 1994, by the Spanish provincial government (diputación) of Alicante together with the publishing house Editorial Planeta.

The prize honors one of the finest Spanish writers of the "Generation of 98", José Augusto Trinidad Martínez Ruiz (1873–1967), who used to sign his works with the pseudonym Azorín.
The prize is given annually to a non-published and original novel, whose author receives €68,000 (some 93,000 US dollars). As part of the prize, Planeta publishes the awarded novel.
