The Chinese Can Xue returns to the podium of the betting houses and is the favorite among the prize candidates. The only Portuguese on the Ladbroke list, Lidia Jorge, appears in seventh place.
The Nobel Prize in Literature, which was announced on October 8, has already generated the usual discussion about the favorites, although in 2026 there are less pronounced wills. Murakami, Murnane, Pynchon, Rivera Garza and Vila-Matas dominate. In the Portuguese language, Mia Couto, Paulina Chiziane and Adelia Prado are part of the list

Faced with the unwritten rule of gender alternation — which this year points to a writer—, local bookmakers and voices analyze the choices of eternal candidates such as Can Xue, innovative voices such as Anne Carson and Hispanic letters such as César Aira or Cristina Rivera Garza.
The quinielas about the Nobel Prize in Literature once again insist on the usual names, although it is already assumed that there will be surprise.
'There are candidates, but no one knows'… Names being mentioned ahead of the Nobel Prize in Literature. With the announcement of this year's Nobel Prize in Literature winner just ten days away, the global literary and publishing worlds are once again 'predicting.'
