in 1942 austrian writer pay to hunt has been a perennial favorite for the nobel prize the swedish academy with typical literary flora's credit him with creating an influential work that with linguistic ingenuity has explored the periphery and the specificity of human experience among his best known novels is the goalie's anxiety at the penalty kick from 1970 which was turned to a film by german director venders hunt go with vendors also co-wrote the script to german film classic wings of desire. is a controversial choice he supported serbia during the yugoslav war and even spoke at the funeral of former serb leader slobodan milosevic a man accused of genocide. friesian. the winner of the $28.00 team nobel prize for literature is polish author olga. her best known work is primeval and other times from 1906 the story 80 years in the fictional town of primeval exemplifies the qualities the jury praised in the 57 year old author her powerful imagination a literary style full of wit and cunning and her focus on themes of migration and cultural transitions. before becoming a writer worked as a

off this academy what do you make of that and do this year's bonus have anything to do with that i would say the winners have nothing to do if it because obviously they're they they can't be responsible for any of these choices i think the academy itself has made some sort of prophylactic let's say band aid efforts they've brought in extra members for the juries so that it was slightly more independent try to kind of drop the very very traditional view they had of literature. they also want to review this issue of lifetime appointment for atomy members which has caused some problems in the past obviously when members have decided just to not turn up kind of tired of their duties and then no one can occupy that chair and actually contribute in opinion they are also going to be coming up with a code of conduct for academy members so that we can avoid issues like what we've seen with kordell no. i really don't think that with these choices the world to me spector to just forget about this kind of a scandal obviously that rocked the reputation of an institution that has been globally respect
