Marion Brunet – laureate 2025 1
Marion Brunet, author Shimmering and crystal-clea
r prose The jury’s motivation “Marion Brunet’s books take place in a fiercely pulsating present with climate crisis and social vulnerability as recurring themes. In shimmering and crystal-clear prose, young people are portrayed in revolt against a corrupt society. The dark and violent parts of our world are explored in Brunet’s timely narratives, which are made timeless by their links to myth and folklore. And counterforces are found in friendship, solidarity, and the beauty of nature.” 7
