It's coming soon, f.am
>Will Roth and DeLillo get one for da Land?
>Will Memerakami or some other popular author win?
>Will Adunis finally win?
>Will Magris win?
>Will some african dude win?
So, who do you think is going to win and who would you like to win?
literally who cares
I kinda do, but that's because I'm a vapid fuck
I care because if who wins is not really well known he gets published here and I can read him
>Will Roth and DeLillo get one for da Land?
probably not (and they dont deserve one either)
>Will Memerakami or some other popular author win?
no
>Will Adunis finally win?
arab spring aint hip anymore senpai, so no
>Will Magris win?
dunno who that is
>Will some african dude win?
hopefully not
IT WILL PROBABLY BE A DEGENERATE, A NONWHITE, OR A WOMEN
WHITE MEN ARE BEING OPPRESSED
CULTURAL MARXISM
TAKE THE REDPILL
Just needed to get that out of the way. Now the thread can go on.
Swedish Academy is a bunch of middlebrow faggots. The prize is entirely political and every year it's given to a literally who.
This was mostly true even in the 20th century but it's especially so now. Most literary awards are shit. It's up to folks like us to decide which books are worthy of continued affection.
>no Borges
>no Joyce
>always pushing diversity over quality
literally tumblr awards tbqh
lads we already covered it here
>The prize is entirely political
eh, not really
>and every year it's given to a literally who.
that's not true at all. sometimes that happen, but overall they are established figures. just because you don't read contemporary literature outside pynchon and wallace doesn't mean the laureates are unknown
take the redpill sheeple
>that's not true at all. sometimes that happen, but overall they are established figures
That's true, it's just that the last few years the winners were from Europe and famous in their respective countries so that burgerposters got mad. It's not the Nobel committee's fault you guys know only about the Hamburglar!
Hoping for Ashbery, DeLillo, Roth, Pynchon, or Rushdie. Rushdie is my last choice because he is young enough to have more chances.
All of these. Fuck the Nobel.
I don't want any of my favorite authors to receive this shitty prize. Give it to Murakami or fucking John Green.
Beckett knew what was up when he donated his prize money.
> No Joyce, Proust, Kafka, Borges etc
> Obama wins one just for campaigning
Fuck the Nobel!
>tfw people don't know enough about the Nobel Prize to understand that Proust died before they could give it to him
>Kafka didn't publish much before his death so he was unknown to the committee
You are idiots.
Are you retarded?
Kafka is justifiable.
Joyce is unforgivable.
What about Joyce? Or Borges? Or Nabokov? Or Tolstoy?
Are you going to say that they were unknown too?
Sartre knew that the Prize was bullshit, and so should you.
He just didn't want to stand on a milk crate on the podium baka
>this autistic samefag triggered by a prize
bump
No-one cares, go away
>Houellebecq will never win the Nobel prize for perfectly encapsulating the portrait of the increasingly anomic modern male
Thiong'o or a non-Han Chinese seems pretty like
Likely at this point. Hoping for something like Ishiguro.
It's going out to ISIL soon.
Roth will NEVER win
This year, surely!
Tolstoy lived in 19th century
nobel prize isn't worth shit, pratchett died before those cucks could have given him one
>this autist is THIS triggered
probably a pseud burger
tolstoy was very much alive when the nobel was active
w e w
He was alive for only the very first Nobel - no academy is giving their first prize to an anarchist Russian (maybe a later one)
Fuck nobels they didnt award Cervantes and Shakespeare thats why theyre fucking joke
Even skipped Homer! An outrage
Roth deserves it most.
Even after when he wrote Antigone
gonna put a cheeky fiver on kjell askildsen
