A friend of mine sent me
this article out of the
International Herald Tribune about the intersection of gender and literary recognition/prizes/awards/etc. It raises questions (and answers them, though maybe not to everyone's satisfaction) about the still-traditionally-male-centered Great Book prizes and about the more newfangled Great Female Book prizes -- both of which are trends I find regrettable.
