Re: Your greatest literary discovery of 09
Bolaņo, like so many others. And Herta Müller. I finally got around to reading Willy Kyrklund, and will be reading a lot more of him.
Then there's a bunch that didn't quite knock me off my feet but I really liked. Lotass, Moya, Vladislavic, Tadjo, Wu Ming, Ishiguro...
