Author feature: Jon Fosse — 2023 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate
This week we are featuring the books of the remarkable Norwegian writer Jon Fosse, who has developed a method he calls 'slow prose' to explore the depths and subtleties of memory and experience and to grapple with the complex predicaments of human existence, language, time, and personhood. His prose is hypnotic, looping, emotionally resonant, philosophical, and often also funny. Fosse has just been awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Literature.
