Strange, considering I thought of Mommsen primarily as being a historian.
clearly one doesn't need to be a prose or poetry writer by profession to win.
So, I have a list of authors here. It's a bit like Pokémon... Gotta catch them all.

Yes, even people with virtually no education have usually heard of Churchill and/or Kipling. *NM*

It's not so hard to figure that out...

Why is that? Because the prize is utterly meaningless?

Of course it is meaningless, all prizes are.

Oh...but those are the "Some People" that I look down my elitist nose at.

Of all the Russian authors to receive the prize, Solzhenitsyn is the worst stylistically

Don't put it on a list at amazon. Put it in the cart, then click on "purchase".

It's one of my favorite books of all time.

There's an ITV film of the book with Keira Knightley. It looks utterly appalling. *NM*

For what it's worth, the recent Russian miniseries wasn't fantastic.

I worked out that the best way to make use of this thread is to remove the names I have read...
