The Portugues Pen Club International announced that the Italian poet, musician and philologist Francesco Benozzo has been nominated as a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature 2019 by the "Pen Clube Português".
Nominated since 2015 by another branch of the Pen Institution for his poetry in defence of natural places and for his use of techniques belonging to the ancient tradition of oral poetry, in 2016 Benozzo was consecrated on the official webpage of the Swedish Academy as the most worthy author for the prize itself. This is the second year that the Portuguese Pen Club indicates Benozzo as his candidate.
