Happy Birthday, Per Olov Enquist! Another year wiser, and still royally charming us with your literary brilliance. Your novel "The Visit of the Royal Physician" remains a timeless gem—proving once again that doctors' visits can indeed be fascinating (and far less awkward than ours usually are).Congratulations on your Austrian State Prize for European Literature; clearly, Austria knows talent when they see it! May your birthday be filled with laughter, inspiration, and perhaps fewer royal physicians knocking at your door. Here's to another year of captivating stories and literary triumphs—long may you reign over our bookshelves!
