French novelist Patrick Mondiano has been awarded the 2014 Nobel Prize for Literature:
'for the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the occupation'
I congradulate him and wonder how quickly a copy of Ring Roads will be in the shops.
This year this blog is doing something special. Over the next few weeks I will be getting guest bloggers to write a response to this event from a variety of positions and points of view. I will be doing my very best to get out a review of one of his books at some point as well so there is plenty to look forward to.
