After receiving the Nobel Prize, many writers face immense pressure, leading some to forgo their literary careers altogether, as exemplified by Yasunari Kawabata's experience.
Olga Tokarczuk, following her Nobel win, has shifted to focus on combining literary work with activism, evidenced in her latest novel, The Empusium.
In The Empusium, the protagonist Mieczysław Wojnicz embodies the delicate balance of life and illness, reflecting on the therapeutic power of nature's breath.
The sanatorium in Göbersdorf serves not just as a backdrop but as a character itself, highlighting the interplay between environment and healing for those afflicted.
