Why almost all your favorite authors are english or american?
Dear Spleen, It is a matter of exposure. I was fortunate enough to have schooling and an inquisitive nature that led me beyond Anglo and American authors. There are so many countries on the planet, and most of them have authors that are accessible at your schools, colleges, universities, public libraries, and Amazon.com! Most people’s favorite authors are probably from their own country, however. I am an American, an I have a very diverse favorite list, beginning with Beowulf. My English Lit instructor read it to us in the language in which it was written. I have a copy of it in its original form with the translation in modern English.
