Pick a writer, any writer

The winner of the Nobel prize for literature will be announced any Thursday now, as Reuters UK reports. (Likely the 12th or 19th of October, to be more precise.)

The news service featured an item about the prize on Monday in which it stressed the Nobel Academy’s notorious secrecy: “The Academy never reveals its shortlist, and the names of the few hundred nominees the literature committee usually receives — by invitation only — will stay a secret for five decades.”

This means of course that all the potential winners mentioned in the Reuters story might as well have been drawn from an exceedingly large top hat.
