JK Rowling Denied Top US Honour

Linky. 


Oh my. I really don't know how to begin here, or where to go after that, or even what conclusion to draw. Let's make a list.

  1. Hahahahaaaaaa. She didn't get the award.

  2. Hahahaaahaahaa. Some Americans (usually including, but not limited to, those who thought George Dubya as President was a good idea...) can be so flippin' narrow minded about literary endeavour, yet they're all about their 'free speech' bull. I have to tell you, the books are so realistic that I want to sue my parents for not sending me to Hogwarts and giving me the chance to be a wizard. Oh no, hang on a second, that's not right...

  3. "Past literary recipients of the award include John Steinbeck and Harper Lee." She's in that class, is she? She deserves to rank alongside the authors of Of Mice and Men and To Kill a Mockingbird? Fools.
Those are just some of the myriad thoughts which came to mind when I saw this. It's not even JK's fault (for once) but she's such a raving numpty anyway.
