The Norwegian Jon Fosse has won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2023.
The Nobel is awarded to the Norwegian author Jon Fosse with the motivation "for his innovative plays and prose that give voice to the unspeakable".
In the words of the Swede and the founder of the Alfred Nobel Prizes, the prestigious prize should go to "the person who in the field of literature produced the most outstanding work in an idealistic direction."
"His immense body of work, spanning a variety of genres, consists of a host of plays, novels, poetry collections, essays, children's books and translations. While he is today one of the most performed playwrights in the world, he has also become increasingly known for his prose," the Nobel community said of Fosse.
Fosse, 64, was born on the west coast of Norway. His work consists of about 40 plays, as well as numerous novels, poems, essays, children's books and translations.
Meanwhile, the Committee appreciated the author's style, which has been known as "Fosse minimalism."
115 Nobel Prizes in Literature have been awarded since 2001.
The youngest Nobel laureate for literature was Rudyard Kipling, who was 41 when he was awarded the prize in 1907. The oldest was Doris Lessing, who was 88 when she was announced as a laureate in 2007.
Last year, French writer Annie Ernaux became the 17th woman to win the Nobel Prize in literature.
Selma Lagerlöf was the first woman to be honored in 1909.
Two people have refused the prize: Jean-Paul Sartre in 1964 (he repeatedly refused all official honors) and Boris Pasternak in 1958, who initially accepted the prize, but "was later caused by the authorities of his country (the Soviet Union) ) to refuse the award.
