In 2017, in an MA course, we needed to pick a woman writer as a Nobel Lit candidate & defend our choice. I chose Han Kang and got an A+ on my presentation. Happy to see that the Nobel Prize committee has caught up with what I envisioned 7 years ago π
BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Literature is awarded to the South Korean author Han Kang βfor her intense poetic prose that confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life.β
