	Best of Young British Novelists \| Granta Best of Young American Novelists 2
		These lists were revealing snapshots of three generations of writers about to come into their own.
		In January 2003, when our twenty novelists were being assembled by the Sunday Times for the by now traditional group photograph, I remembered that I'd witnessed a similar scene in another London studio in the early 1980s.
		Not the first Best of Young British Novelists, which was still a year or two away, but a promotion called the Best of British Writers, organized by the Book Marketing Council and its chairman, Desmond Clarke.

		On July 21, 1998, the Radcliffe Publishing Course compiled and released its own list of the century's top 100 novels, at the request of the Modern Library editorial board.
		A majority of the writers on the list are Americans.
		Novelists go in and out of fashion and many of these books were what today would be called quite unsuccessful.

		The first novels on the list are Brick Lane by Monica Ali, Vernon God Little by DBC Pierre and Astonishing Splashes of Colour by Clare Morrall.
		There was no place on the list for the former winner JM Coetzee, whose book, Elizabeth Costello, was tipped to win, or for Yellow Dog by Martin Amis, which was included on the 23-strong longlist despite caustic reviews.
		Prof Carey said this year's shortlist was notable for the number of debut novelists and the lack of star names such as Amis and Coetzee.

		This is the third list published in the last three decades.
		The others in the list are A.L Kennedy, Rachel Seiffert, author of 'The Dark Room', Robert Meliam Wilson, Ben Rice, Rachel Cusk, Peter Ho Davies, Susan Edlerkin, David Peace, Zadie Smith, David Mitchell, Sarah Waters, Dan Rhodes, Adam Thirlwell and Nicola Barker.

		IJ: That by not listing them a second a time when they were still eligible we would be implying that they had gone off.
		The necessary arbitrariness of lists means the criteria of choice here could be months, rather than talent.
		I felt that the reaction to the 1996 list showed the benefits of having a small group of informed judges - as in Britain - rather than some political Eurovision style tallying of votes.

	SALON Features: Making the cut (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Viewed from this side of the Atlantic, where our idea of a well-aimed spitball is a wan and tetchy letter to the editor in the New York Times Book Review, these British free-for-alls have a winsome combination of slapstick humor and stylized bravado; they're like Benny Hill skits lashed together by Robert Rodriguez.
		Whether or not Granta's 1993 list deserved the gang gong it got in the literary press, it certainly looked meager compared to the magazine's 1983 list of the best British novelists under 40.
		As prescient as it was gimmicky, Granta's debut list neatly skimmed the era's killer elite, from Martin Amis, Pat Barker, Julian Barnes and William Boyd to Kazuo Ishiguro, Ian McEwan and Salman Rushdie.

		Maybe that century’s novelists were better than this century’s.
		Certainly the correlation between the list and the number of books (59 of the 100) printed by Modern Library gives pause for thought.

		According to one source, psychologist Kay Redfield Jamison has compiled a list of artists who have mental illnesses and are also highly creative.
		Critics charge that giving dead artists retroactive psychiatric diagnoses and treating those diagnoses as evidence to the link between creativity and mental illnesses is not valid.
		They point out that bipolar disorder, which Jamison links to creativity, is only the latest in a list of organic conditions associated with creativity.

		I'm a compulsive list maker, and have kept a running tally of all the books I've read since the seventh grade (1958).
		Looking back over the list, I was curious to check my tastes in recent fiction -- books that I read 1973-1995, that were written or first published during that period (approximately) and that I particularly enjoyed.

	Where There's Smoke
		There's a pretty interesting though easily manipulated article out this week about how sales for A-List bestselling novelists like Michael Crichton and Tom Clancy are way down and the runaway hits of this year in publishing are contemplative, human-relationship books like Alice Sebold's The Lovely Bones and Richard Russo's Empire Falls.
		The author sights as evidence that sales for Crichton's long-awaited new novel Prey are just so-so, and that Tom Clancy, Stephen King, Sue Grafton and Mary Higgins Clark's recent numbers have been anemic compared to their astrnomical numbewrs of the past.
		In contrast, The Lovely Bones is still burning up the bestseller list (1.5 million copies and counting) and Empire Falls, a 483-page comic tale of live in a dying Maine town won the Pulitzer and sold a gazillion copies.
