The Great Gatsby was a best-seller in the 20's. Was it considered high literature? And Stephen King has a genius ability in writing. I'm not a King fan but I'm working through the Long Walk, and I'm sure it's better than what a lot of those 'literary' writers produced.

Incidentally, Tolkien was South African-British, not American. It's funny the OP begins the thread with that marker.
