His innovative works, which give voice to the unsayable, have garnered critical acclaimOn Oct. 5, 2023, the Swedish Academy awarded the Norwegian author and dramatist Jon Fosse the Nobel Prize in Literature “for his innovative plays and prose which give voice to the unsayable,” the award-giving body said.
His work"touches on the deepest feelings that you have, anxieties, insecurities, questions of life and death," says Ander Olsson, chair of the Nobel literature committee. His work “A New Name: Septology VI-VII” described by Olsson as Fosse’s magnum opus, was a finalist for the International Booker Prize in 2022. The final volume in a seven-novel exploration of life, death and spirituality contains no sentence breaks.
