Oh yes, today is a day of joy and rapture. Today marks a day of greatness and a shifting change in the world of literature. I’m going to assume this is the first time this has happened, so here goes:
Doris Lessing has just won the Nobel Prize for Literature!
Why does it matter so much? Because Doris Lessing writes science fiction! It’s a nice rub in the face of all those literary snobs who think SF as lesser fiction. Eat it!
If you want to read more go here or here. Oh, and a little bit about her and her writing is here.
Thanks so much to Doris Lessing for paving the way for other great SF authors out there! We have hope yet!
