60. Apocalyptic Terror: László Krasznahorkai⁠⁠ Takes the Nobel Prize in Literature

from MEOW: A Literary Podcast for Cats · host The Meow Library

This podcast is a presentation of ⁠The Meow Library⁠. The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2025 has been awarded to the Hungarian author ⁠László Krasznahorkai⁠, “for his compelling and visionary oeuvre that, in the midst of apocalyptic terror, reaffirms the power of art," the Swiss Academy announced in a press release this morning. To further reaffirm the power of art, we expound on the implications of Krasznahorkai's Nobel win in a language even more impenetrable than Hungarian. This podcast is sustained by sales of the equally visionary ⁠Meow: A Novel⁠.
