My apologies for not being more explicit in my post. I meant it to be ambiguous so it wouldn't be counted.


So somehow being available as an ebook in the US would transform a book that only seems to be literary into one that really is literary? Gotcha.

I can't help thinking that your issues are related to format and disinterest rather than literary merit.
