Which is your favorite among the 15 writers most likely to win the Nobel Prize for Literature?

The bookmakers are fuming. And it is that this Thursday, October 6, at 1:00 p.m. (Stockholm), the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature will be announced.

This is one of the awards that mobilizes users the most, since there are many who decide to play this pool and try year after year to guess who will win the award.

This year, there are several names that are repeated, such as the eternal Murakami or Margaret Atwood. At the moment, the list is led by Anne Carson and Michel Houllebecq, although we must remember that this is not an official ranking, but rather that these are simply the most voted names. However, as happened for example in 2021 with the Tanzanian Abdulrazak Gurnah, sometimes someone who does not even appear wins.

Another of the curiosities is that there are many users who have opted for Javier Marías or the British Hilary Mantel, but let's remember that neither of them could win the award, since it is given exclusively to living authors and both died last September .
