It seems to me that in discussing the possible books and their potential for placement, a natural ougrowth of that decision is to define what we mean so that good decisions can be made. To me, this is a natural organic process, whereby the Community decides what is appropriate for certain terms. To my way of thinking, this is not only a natural process (as mentioned), but a healthy process as well. Don |

I think let's just nominate what we want and if someone has a case against it they can post what they have to say Which pretty much reiterates exactly what you just said... |

...ok...
Now, let me try to "sell" you Prague, by Arthur Phillips. One more vote is needed to put him on the ballot. He won The Los Angeles Times/Art Seidenbaum Award for Best First Fiction for Prague in 2003. You may know him if you watched Jeopardy in 1997, as he was a five-time champion then. A wonderful book by him is The Egyptologist. Vote for Arthur Phillips, and I'll never assemble again a book on cabbages and cauliflowers. You have been warned.... Don |
