The 'Winners by Continent' section allows visitors to explore past Nobel Literature Prize winners and their representative works by continent.


Exclusive re-cover editions will be offered. A set of two re-cover editions of short story collections by Doris Lessing, the 2007 Nobel Literature Prize winner and one of the oldest recipients, titled 'Going to Room 19' and 'The Habit of Loving,' along with related merchandise, will be available.


By signing up for the '2023 Nobel Literature Prize Interest Alert' on the special exhibition website, users will receive notifications related to the author and works on the morning of October 6, the day after the winner announcement. Subscribers will also receive a YES gift certificate worth 500 KRW.



Kim Gi-ok, team leader of the Yes24 Book Business Division, said, "We prepared this special exhibition so that people can enjoy the world’s most prestigious Nobel Literature Prize in advance and in various ways. We hope this becomes a cultural space where people can share anticipation before the announcement and the emotion and lingering feelings afterward, reflecting on the meaning and value of literature."
