The Associated Press is reporting that the Nobel prize for literature will likely not go to an American.
The lede:
Bad news for American writers hoping for a Nobel Prize next week: the top member of the award jury believes the United States is too insular and ignorant to compete with Europe when it comes to great writing.
Ouch. The story is posted on the New York Times' site.
