Norwegian author and playwright wins Nobel Literature Prize

The Swedish Academy said on Thursday it was for his “innovative plays and prose which gives voice to the unsayable”.

As well as the prize, Fosse receives 11 million Swedish kronor (£822,000), BBC reported.

He admitted he was “overwhelmed and somewhat frightened” by the win. Speaking to Norwegian state broadcaster NRK he said he had “prepared myself mentally” that this day might come.
