斯德哥尔摩诺贝尔学会告知,德国作家Herta Mueller获得2009年度诺本儿文学奖。

Herta Mueller
Herta Mueller's win is announced

The Romanian-born writer follows last year's French winner Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clezio, while British writer Doris Lessing won in 2007.

Mueller, born in 1953, is renowned1 for her depiction3(描述) of the harsh conditions under Nicolae Ceausescu's regime(整体,制度).

She said she was "stunned4 and still cannot believe it".

The Swedish academy praised Mueller for both her poetry and prose(诗歌散文).

Literary prizes

It said the writer had an ability to "depict2 the landscape of the dispossessed" and wrote "with the concentration of poetry and the frankness of prose".

Mueller was born to a family from Romania's German minority and her mother was deported5 to a labour camp in the Soviet6 Union after World War II.

She emigrated to Germany in 1987, after being dismissed from her job in Romania during the 1970s due to her refusal to co-operate with the regime's secret police.

Her first collection of German language short stories, published in 1982, was censored7(检查) in Romania.

Mueller's initial works were smuggled8 out of the country, while in later years she was awarded several literary prizes, including the Irish Republic's Impac Award in 1998.

One of her later books, 2001's The Appointment, goes into great detail about living under a stagnated9(停止) dictatorship(独裁政治).

Only a few of the author's works have been translated into English, including The Passport (1986), The Land of Green Plums (1994) and The Appointment.

Mueller will receive a prize of 10 million Swedish Kronor (£892,000) along with her Nobel honour, which will be presented at a ceremony in Stockholm on 10 December.

German Chancellor10 Angela Merkel said the author "more than deserved" the prize.

"Especially now, 20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, it's a beautiful signal that such high quality literature and this life experience are being honoured," she said.

"We are of course happy that Herta Mueller has found a home in Germany and I congratulate her from the bottom of my heart."
