Forgotten? Not by me!

You know better than that. Forgotten, yes, like so many other Nobel Prize in lit winners. It's an old complaint about who still remembered should have gotten them, and who now forgotten actually got them. But it's like that society woman who said I think to William F. Buckley, (was it Pauline Kael?), that she didn't understand why Nixon was elected since no one she knew had voted for him. Our personal choices remain our personal choices. And the recent nominees such as the communists Dario Fo and Elfriede Jelinek will most certainly be soon forgotten.

Prob’ly all print books will be banned before The End: reading will be forbidden: too individualistic, too retrograde, bad gender themes, whiffs of alcohol, madness and Christ.
