American writer Marilyn Robinson delivered the lecture while Dutch translator Paula Stevens snagged the prize for translators. These honors kicked off in 2023 to celebrate Norwegian Nobel literature winner, John Fosse, and Met Marit highlighted how both Fosse and Robinson weave deep faith and grace into their stories.
