About this audiobook

Being acknowledged for what you do is always very welcome. When it comes to Oscar’s, Emmy’s, Pulitzer’s and Nobel’s it’s also international news and for many, the pinnacle of their career.

The Nobel Prize is much lauded and very difficult to secure. In this volume we list ten of its winners over the decades who were famed for their literature. The prize is given with an emphasis on its contribution to literature and its influence in the world and for the individual, more usually, for the body of work created.

So, whilst none of the stories in this volume were winners in their own right, their authors most certainly were. They perfectly illustrate both the nature and mastery of the writing and the power and the purpose set within its storied prose.
