Re: RARA-AVIS: another list

I think it's natural for lists that reflect personal taste to omit certain authors. I read mostly pre-1970 fiction, so there are authors whose work comes later whom I've never read. But you know, I feel as though I'm an expert on writers of the 40s, 50s and 60s, so my opinion has some value. You can't include authors you've never read and nobody has read them all.
