Last month, the Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded. To commemorate this historical annual event, Lynn Library has created a display of books written by winners of the Nobel Prize in Literature.
J.M.G Le Clezio won in 2008 and his book The Prospector is on display.
Iranian born/British writer Doris Lessing won the award in 2007 and her book The Summer before Dark is displayed.
Orhan Pamuk wrote My Name is Red and won the award in 2006.

South African J.M. Coetzee wrote the book Youth and won the prize in 2003.
