Notes
1. The Nobel Literature Committee probably reached an all-time low in the award of the laureateship to Peter Handke. See Hemon’s (Citation2019) summary of Handke’s support of Slobodan Milosevic’s Serbian ethnic cleansing of Bosnian Muslims (7), and Hutchinson’s (Citation2019) “Handke-sound” (18). At issue is the relationship of personal behaviour to creative achievement.
2. See Rushdie’s (Citation1990) Haroun and the Sea of Stories and more recently his version of the “Thousand and One Nights”, Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights (Rushdie Citation2015).
