10th Anniversary

Ten years ago I started this blog as a English Lit student who wanted to learn more about the Nobel Prize Winners of Literature.  I began the blog as a way of documenting my reading but also opening out my passion to the whole world as something of interest to read in an area that few have delved deeply.

Ten years on I am delighted to have so many people reading my work and visiting the website that it's giving me an incentive to make my work even better, more informative and insightful for people who would like to know more about global writing but haven't the time to read the immense amount of books that exist in the Nobel Prize field.  Hopefully it will also inspire you to read some of these great works and gain something precious in doing so.

Reading these books has been a great privilege and I've yet to come across a dud one!  Some of these books have been the best reading material for me and has really given me a broader scope to what literature can do.  This work is truly outstanding.  The main thing I've learned from doing this is that it is utterly impossible to predict who will win this Prize, though I still bet on it for the fun of it.

Thank you for supporting me in this endeavour in which I'm taking more seriously by reading biographies of the Prize Winners and doing more rudimentary research into it.  I want this site to be seen as a relevant resource for those who wish to know more about some of the books by the authors.

If you would like to support me more there are several ways you can do that:

Leave a comment at the end of an post, these can always be suggestions of books I should review.

Or you can buy one of my books, also linked on the side of the website.

Thanks again and all the best with your reading/ writing.  Here's to ten years!
