✦ Synopsis

Since its inception, the Nobel Prize for Literature has given a public voice to some of the world's greatest writers, and their responses to the honour have often been epochal within each author's body of literature. From the famed call to ""arms"" by William Faulkner to the multicultural song of Derek Walcott, from 1903's Bjornstjerne Bjornson to 1999's Gunter Grass, this traces the ideals of the artists and the selection committee itself throughout the entirety of the 20th century.
