no, any award that gives first prize to that of a non-white or non-male or non-heterosexual is degenerate. Face it, were simply oppressed

Having read Beatty's The Sellout, The Vegetarian, and having made my way through the shortlists of Man Booker, Pulitzer lol, and National Book list for the few years, a political bias is obvious. Cervantes less so, much less so, but of course translation is a problem.

Can you name a winner of one of the biggest awards who were deserving of it despite being the wrong gender or race?

protip: stop caring about awards

I only use them as recommendation sources. I would not have heard of Laurus otherwise, or Svetlana Alexeivich or Mo Yan or Orhan Pamuk or Gao Xingjian , or Marlon James. I am about to read Eileen, and it looks pretty solid.

That said, this year's man booker and commonwealth winners and shortlists were for the most part obvious political statements, and I hate that shit. I dont care if they are "the wrong x" as long as they have great books.

It isnt out of some bizarre obsession with the awards themselves.
