Hungarian writer László Krasznahorkai has won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Literature. The Swedish Academy in Stockholm praised the writer “for his compelling and visionary oeuvre that, in the midst of apocalyptic terror, reaffirms the power of art.”
Krasznahorkai was the Spring 2014 Harriman Writer in Residence. He taught the seminar “Artistic Collaboration in East Central Europe,” centered on his work with famed Hungarian film director Béla Tarr (Satantango, Werckmeister Harmonies) and German painter Max Neumann (Animalinside).
