Winnaars Nobelprijs voor Literatuur 2019

By Jordi Bou

October 10, 2019 - Oostenrijker Peter Handke wint de Nobelprijs voor Literatuur 2019, en de uitgestelde prijs van 2018 gaat naar de Poolse schrijfster Olga Tokarczuk, zo meldt de Zweedse Academie.

Handke won the 2019 prize for “for an influential work that with linguistic ingenuity has explored the periphery and the specificity of human experience,” the Academy said in a statement.

The 2018 prize, delayed by one year after a sexual assault scandal rocked the award-giving Academy, went to Tokarczuk for “a narrative imagination that with encyclopaedic passion represents the crossing of boundaries as a form of life.”
