If James Joyce were alive today, he would have a very hard time getting published in the US

I think I’ve asked this question before:

How is it that judges for fiction in translation consistently select compelling titles but judges for USA fiction consistently do not?

Fantastically said👍

[Morow Jävis Kærdenax @IneluctableQuak]

My impression is that judges of USA fiction are typically USA writers who have won USA prizes by writing as if modernism & postmodernism never happened

which explains their boring novels and their boring choices

Born in Los Angeles in 1905, actress Anna May Wong was the daughter of a laundryman who became a global celebrity. @yunte offers a moving portrait of a screen siren who is “far more complicated than her legendary celluloid image would suggest”. @wwnorton
