The future never arrives; it is always awaited
As in every year, this year too there was much speculation surrounding the Nobel Prize in Literature. Among the possible contenders was the Hungarian short story writer and novelist László Krasznahorkai, who is also well known as a screenwriter. Born in 1954, this eminent writer won the Man Booker Prize in 2015. Now, at the age of seventy-one, he has been awarded the Nobel Prize in 2025. His novels may be described as belonging to the dystopian genre. His celebrated novel The Melancholy of Resistance was adapted into a film by the renowned director Béla Tarr.
