Massive congratulations to Kazuo Ishiguro, who has won the Nobel Prize for Literature; richly deserved.

I did a degree in English and American Literature at the University of Kent, at the same time as him. I don't recall ever meeting him but we breathed the same air, so that counts, right? :)

A wonderful writer, and huge kudos for my Alma Mater, I am so pleased :cool:.
 
Name dropper
Not that I've ever heard of him
He's not exactly a household name :) but he's written a number of widely acclaimed novels, won the Booker prize, and a couple of his books (Never Let me Go, and The Remains of the Day) have been turned into very successful films.
