Nobel Prize Laureates in Literature

A list of Nobel Prize laureates in Literature, going backwards from 2008 to 1901. I made the list so I can keep track of progress towards my goal of reading one book by every Nobel Prize in Literature winner. So, no, I haven’t met the people marked; I’ve just read at least one book written by them. Until I can figure out a better system for keeping track, that will have to do.
