I have just come to know of the Romanian writer and poet !.... May now be he takes the position of the recently dead Romanian great Ismail Kadare....

Reading this book currently (about 1/4 in) and it is frankly, one of the worst books I have ever read. It is so beyond clear to me, that this book has won all of these prizes PURELY on the fact that Alexis Wright is both a woman and Aboriginal. I am so tired of the wokeness that is infesting every aspect of our culture these days. This book is practically illegible, we have paragraph long allegories, or descriptions upon descriptions (I counted one where we got 7 descriptions of the same thing within one paragraph) it's tedious and tiresome - meanwhile NOTHING happens, there is zero advancement of the plot due to the non-stop similies to describe the same three of four things over and over. And all this to basically just write a novel whose theme is - white people suck and should be erased from the planet. It's just racism and poorely disguised racism at that, but no one has the courage to say so because in 2024 to disagree with anyone who happens to be a POC is cancel worthy.

Amazing! 🤩

Such a sweet response from the get go. So well deserved, his writing is so wonderful. I hope very much that this win will help encourage more english translation of his work

This man is so incredibly interesting

Sounds like we really need Volumes 2 and 3 of Blidning to be brought into English!

Thank you for this. I am looking forward to reading this book and I'm not even Canadian lol! Best wishes - I really enjoyed this video and what the author had to say. Looking forward to more!

I have read and enjoyed this great writer.

What a fantastic event and well-deserved win.

She's a talent

Loved his speech! Knew I wanted to get to Solinoid, but now I HAVE TO and soon!

Vivek will make you cry

Amazed Seána hasn’t conquered Hollywood by now! 🤷🏼‍♂️😢

It's interesting that the Cannes Film Festival and the International Literally Festival Dublin take place at the same time. Both are truly international. When you look at the list of winners at Cannes and the shortlist at the Dublin Literary Festival yes the Cannes Festival is much more glitzy but i really think the Dublin Literary Festival should get similar coverage in Irish TV as Cannes gets on French TV

💫✨️💓

Lovely stuff!

I am delighted. Have read The Trees & Paradise. Have the other 4 ready to read this week, whilst I am on annual leave 😊

A Minha Diva Literária sempre inspiradora e extremamente brilhante! Que venham muitas mais obras com esta excelência!
