Books: The Nobel Prize for Literature

Patrick Modiano is a good author but Philip Roth is a formidable writer. And the Nobel Prize can't change that. 

The Swedish Academy is playing politically correct games and Philip Roth is NOT politically correct. Great writers never are. 

At least, (thank you, Academy!) Haruki Murakami did not win...But given that Elfriede Jelinek is a past winner - anything is possible....
