Yeah, Jelinek is member even member of KPÖ. During Cold War there were some notable dissidents who got the prize (Pasternak and Solzhenitsyn and Milosz and Brodsky). On the other hand there were some openly communist prizes, like for Neruda, Sartre and Soholov.

also, Harold Pinter, while not actually a Communist, was very much of the left.
