In this detailed novel, the protagonist Andrew Craig is dealing with his own demons when his life is changed forever when he wins the Nobel Prize. The lives, affairs, dreams and traumas of the other Nobel winners are told and intertwined with his. This builds a complex view of the Nobel Awards and how and why they awarded, life in the Swedish capitol of Stockholm, and even touches on world politics at the time. Well researched and organized this is a combined history and social lesson in awards and the way people react to the honor. Good read.
