It was the German-Romanian author Herta Müller who received this year's Nobel Prize in Literature. She is described as "a prolific novelist and essayist whose works depicting the human devastation of the Romanian dictatorship and the rootlessness of political asylum."

Her Swedish publisher Wahlström & Widstrand are obviously very pleased today.

Do you have enough books in stock?

"Yes, we have a couple of thousand books, but we have to see if it is enough."

Herta Müller is the 75th Nobel laureate in literature published by Bonnier Books.
