Well you do mention names and i don't think Eco and Le Clezio can't be compared at all.They are on completly different literary planets.
As a matter of fact i prefer Eco and writing,if complexe,is easier for me to grasp than the often onirique prose of le Clezio.
I notice in last thread on the nobel a lot of " ..he didn't get it but he was much better than ...." and a list of great writers who obviously deserved it.
I must say that from all the nobelized authors i read,i never thought that one didn't deserved it.Even if i did not like their work much(Coetzee,Naipaul) i can see the quality in them.
Which is not what i would say of a lot of literary prizes.
