It is awarded to an author generally for one's work as a whole, and not for an individual work, although an individual work might be mentioned in the award. I really couldn't tell you if it is given for a "trayectory" since I have no idea what that is.

It is given for a writer's work over his or her lifetime -- what you might choose to call their trajectory. (Not really hard to know what you meant, typo notwithstanding.)

For example, here is the list of winners:
http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/literature/laureates/

Click on any and it will lead to links to the official statement by the Academy in choosing that person -- it doesn't cite to one work, but to the body of work.

(P.S. -- it wasn't given to a blogger in Iraq last year, but to the British playwright Harold Pinter.)

its given for literature, any literature whether its poetry, prose, a novel or a trajectory as it was last year, to a blogger in iraq.
