Det finns gott om fantasyförfattare som är okända, även för de allra flesta nördar, och de borde finnas med i bedömningarna!<br />Och tack! <3Elinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01148993579559101635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237122139915736138.post-47367903476841874592014-10-15T19:22:07.599+02:002014-10-15T19:22:07.599+02:00Skamligt att de anser att J.K Rowling inte skulle ...Skamligt att de anser att J.K Rowling inte skulle förtjäna nobelpriset... :/<br />Jättebra skrivet som vanligt! <3Fellrendiónhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18306603779367941059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237122139915736138.post-91121840955228581392014-10-15T02:19:23.314+02:002014-10-15T02:19:23.314+02:00I've only read Kafka on the Shore by Murakami....I've only read Kafka on the Shore by Murakami. I'm not sure he deserves it either, but it would mean something. <br />HP's language is amazing. How could you not notice that? :o The Nobel prize is based on the will of Alfred Nobel. He wanted his fortune to be given to those who had benefited humanity. Writing a book with only fancy language doesn't do anything. Building a genre does something. Writing about something that no one has read before does something. No one has done horror like Lovecraft since him. No one has managed children's book series like Rowling. No one has founded children's culture in Sweden like Lindgren. Writing fancy shouldn't be a criteria. <br />And as far as I know and as far as Wikipedia says, Doris Lessing didn't write any works of fantasy.

I like (some of) his books, but there's no inventive in language and overall I find him just average.<br />I think it's just a question of perspective. I read and loved HP, but they never struck me like some book from Nobel prize. I think language use is very important when it comes to Nobel, and most fantasy writer don't pay much attention to that. <br />(And anyway Doris Lessing, who won in 2007, wrote several fantasy novel :D)Lumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03442824485920503927noreply@blogger.com
