The 82-year-old French woman, awarded in the literature category, fulfills the award “with humility”. She also feels great “gratitude” for receiving the Nobel Prize in Literature 65 years after the late French writer Albert Camus.
The author of works like “The Stranger” received it in 1957. “Finding myself here, sixty-five years later, leaves me with a deep sense of wonder,” Ernaux told the 2,000 guests at Stockholm City Hall.
The award for her work obliges her “to even higher standards in the search for reality and truth,” said the author (“The Other Girl”, “The Years” and “The Event”).
