- Description
- Question: Who is the most famous writer of the New Millennium? Answer: JK Rowling, author of the Harry Potter stories. If you answered in the affirmative, you will be forgiven for sharing the view of many teenagers (and an increasing number of young adults) around the world who swear by Mr Potter's benign witchcraft. But while we ponder the Harry Potter juggernaut (Ms Rowling's books are bestsellers in any language), let us also ponder why very few serious intellectuals make it to the top of the world's most famous best-seller lists (The New York Times, Amazon.com, Times of London, etc). There is a reason why Gore Vidal, Jeffery Sachs, Noam Chomsky and Edward Said, have all had some of their best work published by little known outfits such as St Mark's Publishing House, and not celebrated imprints of the Simon and Schuster or Alfred Knopf calibre.
