Nobel Judge dismisses US Literature.
I tend to agree with person who offers up a reading list to the callous judge. There is something to be said about Americans not having the availability of translations or seeking them out as much as we might, but the longer recorded histories of Europe and close proximities of cultures and languages do not automatically equate better writing.
I guess this means we won't be seeing any Flarf poets crowned on the Nobel stage for a few more years.
