Default Re: Various: Best European Fiction 2010

Kafka, Flaubert and Mann are taken as an example, but there are no Czech, French or German authors in the list. They already have their superstar, Hemon must have thought.

Very interesting initiative though. It seems there's a lot for me to learn, since I only know three authors in the list. Vorpsi, Terrin and Enter. The latter I especially know by his voice. He used to be in the jury of an ongoing storywriting competition, of which the results were read out on an obscure radio channel in the Netherlands. The jury, among them Enter, gave their extensive comments to the winning story.
