About this book
Available in a beautiful print edition for the first time, this brilliant lecture delivered by László Krasznahorkai, winner of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Literature, reads like an unforgettable short story Addressed to a rapt audience in Stockholm two days before being awarded his Nobel Prize, László Krasznahorkai’s moving lecture asks: “Human being—astonishing creature—who are you?” In a message about hope (or his lack thereof), Krasznahorkai compassionately considers humanity and how, from our degraded current epoch, destruction might emerge —or rebellion.
