Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk.
According to The Guardian, female writer Olga Torkarczuk is an unexpected but very correct choice of the Nobel Prize for Literature. A statement from the Swedish Academy described her as 'a writer preoccupied with local life . but looking from above . her work is full of wits and wittyness'.
Besides fiction, female writer Olga Torkarczuk also owns many works of political influence.
In May, her novel Flights won the Man Booker International Award, which helped her gain a reputation among the English writers.
Austrian writer Peter Handke.
Unlike Olga Tokarczuk, the Austrian writer Peter Handke is a controversial option for this year's award. Peter Handke was selected just a few days after the Swedish Academy promised to expand the scope of the award, not just limited to the Western male writers as before.
This Austrian writer has written a variety of works such as novels, essays, plays and screenplays. He has lived in Paris (France) since the 1990s and is famous for the play Über die Dörfer (Walk about the Villages) and the novel Die Wiederholung (temporary translation - Repetition).
Peter Handke spoke at the funeral of Slobodan Milošević, a Serbian war criminal, in 2006. This incident led to widespread criticism of the writer.
The nomination for the Heinrich Heine Prize for Peter Handke that same year was withdrawn due to his political views. Peter Handke's victory in the Ibsen International Prize in 2014 also sparked protests, leading to protests in Oslo, Norway.
