Nobel Literature Prize laureate Jon Fosse said this week that "writing can save lives," as he reflected on the many suicides that featured in his writing.
"If my writing also can help to save the lives of others, nothing would make me happier," the Norwegian playwright said in his Nobel lecture in Stockholm ahead of Sunday's gala prize ceremony.
