Nobel Prize for Literature

JM Coetzee, a South African writer, has won the Nobel Prize for Literature. I read some of his work, particularly Dusklands, in a Fiction of Africa course I took in college. I can't remember this book exactly, but everything we read was incredible.

There is some amazing world literature out there, just waiting to be appreciated. Many of us know Achebe, but he's just the tip of the iceberg. Go visit your library and check out some of the fiction coming out of Africa and India.
