Olga Tokarczuk is not sure whether she finally managed to convince the King of Sweden to give up hunting. She explained this by the fact that Swedes have a great love for hunting, which is related to their national tradition. Therefore, she is not sure whether her arguments will ultimately convince the ruler of Sweden to ban hunting. However, he admits that in many respects the king admitted her right. She also noted that he used claims about controlling nature as counter-arguments.
