I'm currently reading it actually. But a New York Times survey of writers and literary critics ranked Beloved the best work of American fiction from 1981 to 2006.

If it were good it would have won some awards of its own merit before a giant protest at how it's good yet hasn't won any awards. Just another novel propped up for political reasons.

Shitty argument, awards are not a valid measure of quality. It indeed did win the Nobel (as irrelevant and worthless as it is) and by your argument it means this book is quality. If you are going to make that shitty argument you can't cherry pick which normie awards you like and dislike.

>best novel

Those two aren't the same thing, shithead.

Maybe not, but it's very good regardless
