Tomorrow, at 13.00 Stockholm time, the winner of this year Nobel Prize in Literature will be announced. As every year, paysages (see here: 1, 2, 3, 4 ) tries to forecast the winner, or authors which seem to have good chances to get the Nobel Prize in Literature. Today M.A. Orthofer has published a list of potential winners in the Literary Saloon. The Ladbrokes odds currently put Alice Munro (4/1) as a potential winner for the price, followed by Haruki Murakami (5/2) on the second position. My personal favorites for this year Nobel Prize in Literature are Péter Nádas, Svetlana Alexievich, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o and Assia Djebar. In my 2012 forecast I wrote Mo Yan on my personal favorites list for Nobel Prize in Literature 2012 – and then Mo Yan has been really awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature 2012. In some hours we will know the happy winner of Nobel Prize in Literature 2013.
