That's what I'm good at.\"\u003cbr/\u003e18. Exterior of Fisk Building\u003cbr/\u003eTurkish novelist Orhan Pamuk, whose uncommon lyrical gifts and uncompromising politics have brought him acclaim worldwide and prosecution at home, won the Nobel literature prize on Thursday for his works dealing with the symbols of clashing cultures.\u003cbr/\u003ePamuk said receiving the prize was an honour not only for him but an honour for the Turkish language and culture, as well as Turkey itself.\u003cbr/\u003eThe selection of Pamuk, whose recent trial for \"insulting Turkishness\" raised concerns about free speech in Turkey, continues a trend among Nobel judges of picking writers in conflict with their own governments. \u003cbr/\u003eBritish playwright Harold Pinter, a strong opponent of his country's involvement in the Iraq war, won last year while Elfriede Jelinek, a long time critic of Austria's conservative politicians and social class, was the 2004 winner.\u003cbr/\u003ePamuk, currently a visiting professor at Columbia University in New York, told the Associated Press he was very happy but also overwhelmed to receive such an honour.\u003cbr/\u003e\"When I heard that I have received the news, I didn't have anytime to think about it because immediately the secretary of the Swedish Academy called me, so it was a sort of joy and 'Oh my God what am I going to do now? How am I going to address all the demands now?'\" said Pamuk.\u003cbr/\u003eEarlier this year, Pamuk had spoken dismissively of the Nobel.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I really don't like this Nobel literature thing and nonsense,\" Pamuk had told CNN-Turk television. \"I've always said that I am not interested in it, it is not something that is on my mind.\"\u003cbr/\u003ePamuk, whose novels include \"Snow\" and \"My Name is Red,\" was charged last year for telling a Swiss newspaper in February 2005 that Turkey was unwilling to deal with two of the most painful episodes in recent Turkish history: the massacre of Armenians during World War I, which Turkey insists was not a planned genocide, and recent guerrilla fighting in Turkey's overwhelmingly Kurdish southeast.\u003cbr/\u003eThe controversy came at a particularly sensitive time for the overwhelmingly Muslim country. Turkey had recently begun membership talks with the European Union, which has harshly criticised the trial.\u003cbr/\u003eThe charges against Pamuk were dropped in January, ending the high-profile trial that outraged Western observers.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Swedish Academy said that the 54-year-old Istanbul-born Pamuk \"in the quest for the melancholic soul of his native city has discovered new symbols for the clash and interlacing of cultures.\"\u003cbr/\u003eIn Turkey, fellow novelists, poets and publishers were among the first to congratulate Pamuk, but nationalists who regard the novelist as a traitor accused the Swedish Academy of rewarding the author because he had belittled Turks.\u003cbr/\u003eTurkey's Foreign Ministry congratulated Pamuk, wishing him continued success.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description'
