The Norwegian writer won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Why he is now giving four of his notebooks to the Nobel Prize Museum.
The writer Jon Fosse (64) left several notebooks to the Nobel Prize Museum – including an as yet unpublished book. The Norwegian (“Morning and Evening”, “The Other Name”) won the Nobel Prize for Literature this year.
The museum always asks laureates who come to Nobel Week to bring an object that will help them tell a story, a spokeswoman said. Fosse donated four notebooks that contained an unpublished book. According to Swedish news agency TT, the book, titled “Vaim,” could be published next year.
