Back to the literature. Except for "Wind in the Willows" (dimly remembered) I missed out on all the children/ya books. In my youth those weren't part of the canon in Germany. Can a children/ya book be the best of the decade - yes of course imho. Perhaps such a win would be fitting for the "childhood" of the 20th century - grimmer decades will follow shortly.

My vote goes to Nostromo. Wait a moment. No - haven't been hit by lightning. There you are.
Mandy, I'm not sure if you're saying that you'd prefer a non-anonymous poll?

If so, you've posted how you are going to/already have voted ...

(Which I have no problems with, I'm just checking whether you meant to.)
