The reason is the annual announcement of the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, and the writer this time is Dionne Brand, whom many readers and scholars consider a leading contender for the award.

“Almost every woman in the story of Jesus is called Mary... More commonly, the Marys have combined and then divided, only to fuse again with other, unnamed women in Jesus’s circle. They seem particularly attracted to Mary Magdalene, to whom they cluster like pins to a dressmaker’s magnet... Mary Magdalene has always represented ‘the sinner we should aspire not to be and the saint we aspire to become’.” Multiplying Marys, by Marina Warner, London Review of Books, Volume 40 Number 4, 22 February 2024.
