Olga Tokarczuk, one of the best and most celebrated current Polish writers, has received the 2018 Nobel Prize in Literature, awarded in 2019, and has been honored with awards such as the Brueckepreis or the Nike, the most prestigious in her country. Author of nine novels and three storybooks, her works have been translated into forty-five languages and have earned her recognition from colleagues like Annie Proulx ("A writer of the caliber of W. G. Sebald") or Svetlana Alexievich ("A magnificent writer").

At Anagrama she has published A Place Called Antaño: "Tokarczuk is as skilled in character creation as she is in plot articulation, creating a universe where facts are sprinkled with philosophical reflections and bursts of lyricism" (Rafael Narbona, El Mundo); The Wanderers, International Man Booker Prize 2018 and finalist of the National Book Award in the category of translated books: "A beautiful book about the need to cross borders to know something more about ourselves" (Rafael Narbona, El Mundo); "A constellation-novel" (Marta Rebón, El País); "Fascinating, genre-less book" (Mercedes Monmany, ABC); "An inexhaustible book" (Domingo Ródenas de Moya, El Periódico); "Perhaps we are facing the best travel book ever written" (Antonio Lozano, La Vanguardia); "A vibrant mosaic of stories" (Pablo Martínez Zarracina, El Correo); "A great and joyful read" (Santiago Aizarna, El Diario Vasco); and The Books of Jacob: "A work that demands to be read on the same terms as War and Peace" (Tim Smith-Laing, The Telegraph). Her most recent novel is Land of Empusas.
