The correct answer is: D. Patrick Modiano.
Patrick Modiano (born 30 July 1945) is a French novelist. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2014 “for his poetic and evocative writing, which with great mastery of memory evokes the ambiguity of the human experience.”
Modiano was born in Boulogne-Billancourt, Hauts-de-Seine, France, to a Jewish family. His father, Albert Modiano, was a Romanian-born Italian-Jewish accountant, and his mother, Louisa Colpi, was a French-Italian actress. Modiano’s parents divorced when he was two years old, and he was raised by his mother.
Modiano began writing at a young age, and his first novel, La Place de l’étoile, was published in 1968. He has since published over 20 novels, as well as several short stories and essays. His work has been translated into over 30 languages.
Modiano’s novels are often set in Paris during World War II, and they explore themes of memory, identity, and loss. His work has been praised for its lyrical style and its insights into the human condition.
In addition to the Nobel Prize, Modiano has won numerous other awards, including the Prix Goncourt, the Grand Prix du Roman de l’Académie Française, and the Prix Interallié. He is a member of the Académie Goncourt and the Académie Française.

- A. Kailash Satyarthi is an Indian social activist who has been working for the rights of children since the 1970s. He is the founder of Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA), an organization that works to rescue children from bonded labor and trafficking.

- B. Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani activist for female education and the youngest Nobel Prize laureate. She is known for human rights advocacy, especially the education of women and children in her native Swat Valley in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, northwest Pakistan, where the local Taliban had at times banned girls from attending school. Yousafzai’s advocacy has since grown into an international movement. In 2014, at the age of 17, she was the co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize with Kailash Satyarthi “for their struggle against the suppression of children and young people and for the right of all children to education.”
- C. Jean Tirole is a French economist who has made significant contributions to the fields of industrial organization, regulation, and contract theory. He is the recipient of the 2014 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences “for his contributions to the theory of market power and regulation.”
