Feminist wins Nobel Prize in Literature

In Stockholm, a few minutes ago, the name of the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature was announced. She was the French writer Annie Ernault, who devotes her works to the problems of women. It is noteworthy that the name Arno was included at number 5 in the lists of Nobel favorites compiled by bookmakers.

Thus, predictions that a representative of the post-colonial world, a native of Mumbai, Salman Rushdie, and a Kenyan, Ngugi Wa Thiongo, could not come true, did not come true. Also, the Ukrainian theme did not shoot at all – on the one hand, the Nobel Committee did not present an award to Ukrainian poets Sergei Zhadan and Yuri Andrukhovych (this option was supposed at the expert level). On the other hand, he did not note the political efforts to support Ukraine by the American horror master Stephen King, traditionally named among the potential Nobel laureates and also traditionally left out of the lot at the end of each ceremony.
