That means 50% of the best young contemporary writers in America are Jewish! Go them!

That thread was about Granta's list of young BRITISH writers. This is for the USA.

Are you suggesting there are curious parallels between the two lists?

You might think you're funny but you're not. Go to /pol/ if you want to make antisemitic threads.
