The 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature has been awarded to Annie Ernaux, a French author. She was given the award "for the courage and clinical acuity with which she uncovers the roots, estrangements and collective restraints of personal memory."

And a fun update on one of the Chemistry Laureates from yesterday, she was in a band with Tom Morello at Harvard called Bored of Education! I think that pretty much makes her the coolest person on Earth.

Congrats to my former ⁦ @Harvard⁩ bandmate ⁦ @CarolynBertozzi⁩ on her ⁦ @NobelPrize⁩ in chemistry! We won the Ivy League Battle of the Bands in 1986 with our rockin’ group ‘Bored Of Education’, with her on keyboards & me in spandex. https://t.co/LemA6pcSPV
