Announcement of the Nobel Prize in Literature

[gp]

Thanks for the heads up.  Interested to see how this turns out for
sure.  I still can't really understand why Gaddis never got one while
Saramago and Morrison both recieved it - and I'm not entirely
anti-Saramago, mind you, but still.  What book put him over the top,
does anyone have a guess?  Blindness wasn't bad.  But man.  The Cave?
Eesh.  I haven't picked up another book by him since then.  And now
he's resorted to sequels ("Seeing", sequel to "Blindness") which is
already in the remainders bin - maybe it's been out longer than I
realize - which might be OK.  I don't know.  But appending anything to
Blindness just seems wrong.  I suppose, however, that I should give it
a chance before denouncing it.  That's just my gut speaking.  And as
you know, your gut has more nerve endings than any other part in your
body.  You can look it up.  In your gut.
