Annie Ernaux writer from France received Nobel Prize

By Kristina Sobol  

Budrigannews.com – The awarding body announced on Thursday that French author Annie Ernaux would receive the 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature “for the courage and clinical acuity with which she uncovers the roots, estrangements, and collective restraints of personal memory.”

Ernaux, 82, writes mostly about his own life.

The prize is worth 10 million Swedish crowns, or $914,704, and is given out by the Swedish Academy.

“Consistently and from different angles, examines a life marked by strong disparities regarding gender, language, and class,” the Academy said in explaining why it chose Ernaux.

Her first book, “Les Armoires Vides,” was published in 1974. In 2008, she published “Les Années,” which was translated into “The Years” in 2017.

The Academy described that book as “her most ambitious project, which has given her an international reputation and a raft of followers and literary disciples.”

Alfred Nobel, the Swedish chemist and engineer whose invention of dynamite made him rich and famous, established the prizes for achievements in science, literature, and peace. They have been given out since 1901.

Even though many previous literature prize winners had already been widely read prior to receiving the award, the award draws a lot of attention from the media and has the potential to propel lesser-known authors to global fame while also increasing book sales for literary superstars.

The French philosopher Henri Bergson won a prize in 1927, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill won a prize in 1953, and American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan won a prize in 2016.

It is best to make educated guesses about who will win the literature award, and among the favorites for this year’s prize were a number of authors who have been regarded as highly competitive for many years.

The French author Michel Houellebecq, best known for his 1998 novel Atomised, Kenya’s Ngugi wa Thiong’o, Canadian poet Anne Carson, and India-born Salman Rushdie were among the bookmakers’ favorites for this year’s award.

In August, Rushdie was stabbed in the state of New York as he was getting ready to give a lecture and suffered serious injuries.

Abdulrazak Gurnah, a novelist from Tanzania, took home the prize that year, widely regarded as the most prestigious literary award in the world.
