Bringing together a rich assortment of quotations by Nobel Prize winners, "The Impossible Takes Longer" lends itself as easily to browsing as to research purposes. David Pratt has been collecting quotes from Nobel laureates since 2003, and chose for this book his favourites. Words of wisdom from literature, peace and economics winners feature prominently, but Pratt has made sure those awarded the prize for physics, chemistry and medicine are also well represented. As a result, this anthology brings to light some more obscure, but no less relevant, bons mots. Entries grouped by topic are prefaced with brief introductions by Pratt that prove as thought-provoking as the quotes themselves. From Achievement to Emotions, Science and Technology to Time, Life and Death, the quotations touch on a wide range of subjects. A section of aphorisms on the Nobel that highlights laureates' reactions to winning the award, and to the attendant pomp and circumstance, provides a sort of metacommentary ("It is as good as going to one's funeral without having to die first," said Emily Balch [Peace, 1946]). Three appendices, including a history of the Nobel, mini biographies of the laureates quoted and a comprehensive list of laureates, enhance the volume's utility as a research tool. A keyword index makes finding that apropos quote simple. The enduring observations of these 249 Nobel laureates will delight and enlighten the reader repeatedly.

An exploration of the history, ambitions, and impact of the Nobel Prize in literature as it gained a central position in 20th-century global literary culture. Few scholars would deny that the Nobel Prize is the most prestigious literary award in the world. But what mechanisms made it possible for 18 Swedish intellectuals to become the world's most influential literary critics? Paul Tenngart argues that the Nobel Prize in literature has become a special kind of international canonization: exerted from a non-central, semi-peripheral position, the award sometimes confirms and reinforces hierarchical relations between literary languages and cultures, and sometimes disturbs established patterns of dominance and dependence. Drawing from a wide range of contemporary theories and methods, this multifaceted history of the Nobel Prize questions how the Swedish Academy has managed to keep the prize's global status through all the violent international crises of the last 120 years; how the selection of laureates shaped the idea of 'universal' literary values and defined literary quality across languages and cultures; and what impact the prize has had on the distribution and significance of particular works, literatures and languages. The Nobel Prize and the Formation of Contemporary World Literature explores the history and impact of the Nobel Prize in literature from the first award in 1901 through recent controversies involving Bob Dylan and #MeToo, arguing that the prize is a unique performative act that has been – and still is – central in our continual and collective construction of world literature.
