We showcased Svetlana Alexievich in our very first Book Box. She won the Nobel Prize that year

2017
We featured both Peter Handke and Olga Tokarczuk in June 2017 in the same Book Box. In a strange coincidence, their Nobel Prizes were announced together in 2019: Tokarczuk won the 2018 Nobel and Handke the 2019 prize.
