time is nigh.
still can't believe they gave one to Bob Marley
It's was Peter Tosh's year!
What is it with Bobs?
Kek I was about to write how angry Bob Dylan winning it made me until I reread your post
>Neutral Pine in Livalanc
Funny. But AI still needs to die.
a israelite will win it
Kurdiska räven
TrueLit wants Rushdie and some random African c**ts to win it
Rushdie would cause the Muzzies to seethe. Sweden wouldn't dare to that
The prize has been completely discredited. I don't even remember who won last year. It's irrelevant.
Remember when Obama won it lmao. Been discredited for much longer than you realize.
>cracks monster
Now Henry Kissinger, now he were a *proper* discreditor of the Nobel prize
Hey now, peace through superior firepower works.
obamer won the nobel prize in literature?
the peace price is a separate thing given out by norwegians. the category wasn't even included in alfred nobels will
it wasn’t?
sorry, had it mixed up with the economics one. still, it is given out by norwegians.
us norwegians have never won a war, we’re very good at peace 🙂
Wasn’t Quisling Norwegian? Really fiddles my diddle
every nation has its rightoid traitors
Although recent winners have been all over the place it's still a generally safe rule to bet against any style that's not defined by its austerity. (I like Handke but he's a good example of it)Your Pynchon's and whatnot have no chance. And neither do more likely candidates like Edna O'Brien.
It has been a while since they honored the philosopher, so to take a stab in the dark I think Nussbaum someone like her has a chance. She has both the institutional cache, and specializes in various sacred cow topics like animal rights and global warming.
It will also make morons here seethe and so would be absolutely worth it.
This or Lydia Davis.
But its 90% gonna be some chinky guy I never heard of
You've now heard of Can Xue
>Can Xue
she's kino thoughbeit
For morons who have read fewer than 10 books in their life
be nice
So what you're saying is she's the IQfy frontrunner
>some chinky guy I never heard of
I would put my money on Yan Lianke. He's already won the Kafka and the Nobel is next.
Peter Singer? He has been a leading voice in libtardation.
>Peter Singer
Nussbaum is very much seen as the intellectual choice, rather then Singer who is dismissed as a popularizer . She is someone who is both capable and willing to think through the philosophical underpinnings of animal rights.
Posthumous McCarthy
if you're dead you can't get it. look it up
Who are we betting on?
Either Jamaica or Niggugy
I wouldn’t mind Anne Carson winning. Lol at Pynchon and Murakami
morons really think Murnane even has a shot kek even more delusional is Adonis. If they were going to nominate a middle eastern poet, it was going to be Mahmoud Dwarish but he died in 2008 and he fits their socio-ideological categories perfectly: Palestinian, critical of Israel but believed in the peace-process, willing to examine the psychology of the “colonizer” etc., The middle east nominee has sailed and we will only get East Asian “people” and Africans for the “minorities”
Where is the gypsy rat? Chris via butthole didn't shill him enough it seems.
Can Xue tell me who these people are please?
Does Zurita really have a chance?
>Can Xue, Murnane
for what?
>Murakami
he's as mid as it gets
>Pynchon
no writer of the meme trilogy has or will ever be considered a contender
>Adunis
get real
>Anne Carson
sounds like the logical conclusion to Gluck and Erneaux
>Ngugiwa Thiongo
relevant when? Abduly'allhaveta Googlemuhname already won in his category.
>Pierre Michon, Ulitskaya, Aira, Zurita, Kincaid
literal whos
>Cartarescu
maybe he deserves it, maybe not. nobody outside Hungary can tell.
>Houellebecq
he'll never get it. he never wanted it.
As much as I would love for Pynchon to get it he's too white and boomer for current audiences if it does go to an American again probably a female or POC it'll be someone from Britain or Europe this time I think maybe someone like Zadie Smith
Colm Tóibín. You'll heard it here first.
>Irish
>gay
>austere
He won't, but a good shout, and not undeserving
Austere is about right, I find his prose completely empty.
A shame too as I like both Henry James and Thomas Mann, this guy should be right up my alley, but while lacking some of the cringe of a lot of modern MFA writers he does have a remarkably similar style.
As far as the Nobel goes that could only be a benefit.
Emmanuel Carrère
Houllebecq for the lulz and endless seethe
It's either gonna be Mwalali Gwandingo, Berdeshwan Baralinbalim or Nancy Alberstein.
All I know is that whoever wins a bunch of clueless morons who know nothing about contemporary literature will go “who?!?”
for me it's jon fosse
Horace?
feeling pretty smug right now
As you should, what's your favorite work of his? for me it's Trilogien, very rarely does a book make me cry but this one did the trick. What a sublime experience.
i haven't done trilogy yet, for me it's septology although the melancholies hold a special place in my heart too
I just read an essay by knausgaard from 2019 pushing for fosse to win nobel. From essay:
"Few modern writers could be as far removed from Jon Fosse and the place in which he stands than Michel Houellebecq. Houellebecq’s novels are idea-based, provocative, engaged with the contemporary, disillusioned, smart, misanthropic, and seem somehow to present a face towards the reader. Fosse’s writing contains scarcely an idea, and not a scrap of provocation, the contemporary is toned down or else avoided completely, and although his work often approaches death and explores a kind of existential ground zero, it is never disillusioned and certainly not misanthropic, but full of hope."
Do you agree anon? I've never heard of fosse but like knausgaard quite a bit. Do you think i would like fosse? What other authors do you like?
If you like Knausgård you'll like Fosse, although they're quite different. Fosse was actually Knausgårds teacher at the writer's academy, and as such is an important character in My Struggle ...5, iirc.
I like the scene where Knausgaard calls him a c**t over and over again after Fosse said his writing was bad
they are very different, and i would guess fosse is a lot more difficult to translate, but give him a try. start with trilogy.
Fosse was asked to name another author deserving of the prize when interviewed today.
He mentioned Krasznahorkai and Dag Solstad
Think Knausgaard might off himself now
tbh I don't think Knausgaard is delusional enough to think he deserves the Nobel. He's not innovating or blowing people's minds with the content of his writing. The only impressive thing is how he manages to stay so consistent (in a good way) while churning out thousands of pages over the years.
>Knausgaard writes a follow up to My Struggle
>It's nothing but 400 pages of him calling Fosse a c**t after finding out he won the nobel prize
He must be seething beyond belief
Can you link the interview pls?
Houellebecq, if not only for the absolute seethe it would produce.
my homie jon fosse
My guess is an Asian, so Lianke, Can Xue, Ogawa, or Yu Hua. If Oceania, then Murnane or Alexis Wright. If northern Europe, then Fosse. If Western European, no idea. Nadas, if Eastern Europe.
The fix is in. Rushdie will be the newest laureate.
is rushdie actually worth reading, or is he just popular because he made muslims sperg out?
>because he made muslims sperg out?
Yes. He's not a very good writer but for some people that kind of florid style is right up their alley.
>Emily Wilson - The Iliad
They'll find a way to make it win.
It lost all meaning when they gave it to this untalented prostitute
>t. Polish
is she not heckin based and redpilled enough for you?
She must have written a memoir about killing her hair stylist, because that haircut is atrocious.
Probably Atwood. It will make press.
me
I just hope it’s someone who will make IQfy lose their shit. Like a rapper or someone. But there would be too many troll threads on second thought..
Not a white male.
white genocide isn’t real, but it should be
Give him the Nobel already!
Brandon Sanderson 🙂
I want King to win so I can laugh at all the seething comments
Have it on good word it will be Hirohiko Araki
yung leans dad is one of the guys who decides btw. look it up
I'm assuming that this young lean is some kind of Black person?
It's a kind of wigger
It'll one hundred percent be a safe female person of colour choice like Zadie Smith or the trans author who wrote Discomfort of the Evening
is there a list anywhere of what odds previous winners have had?
you can create one.

Krasznahorkai gang, get in here
Fosseboys we did it! Anglos will never understand
I’m ordering Trilogy, brahs
