The Nobel Prize Committee, which awarded Ivo Andric the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1961, emphasized the epic power of the novel The Bridge over the Drina, which was first published in 1945, in the justification for this prize . The award was more than justified, for The Bridge over the Drina is, in my opinion, one of the most astute, sonorous and carefully constructed works of 20th-century prose literature.
