By that time there will be other authors, much more relevant, much more popular.
Today you can read Dickens and other great, *great* authors, and yet, relatively few people are interested. Their stuff is not as relevant today as it was 100 or so years ago. Also writing style has changed very much and who knows how they will write in 100 years.
