Four Nobels and counting: Fitzcarraldo, the little publisher that could | Books | The Guardian

Fitzcarraldo Editions' publicity director Clare Bogen woke to a barrage of hearts, clapping hands and other excitable emojis. The outcome wasn't clear until one text: "Annie!"

Ernaux's triumph marks the London-based independent publisher's second Nobel prize win in four years, after Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk won it in 2019. As Fitzcarraldo also now publishes Elfriede Jelinek and Svetlana Alexievich, that's four Nobel-winning authors who are published by this small press, with its team of six full-time employees who all "do a bit of everything" from an office in south-east London that used to be a warehouse and nightclub.
