More Insights on the Translated Book List

Some additional insights at The Literary Saloon.  Including an apparent dissent on the exclusion of Jonathan Littell's The Kindly Ones.  I find the passion raging about this latter book extremely interesting.  And it brings to mind the ephemeral nature of our judgments and the subjectivity with which they are made.  On what basis is a book great?  Terrible?  Not worthy of categorization as either?  These are the truly interesting questions in the Arts.
