Response to this claim
Some Malfoid fan-fiction writers deserved the 2026 Nobel Prize in Literature more than Anne Carson, judged against the poetry excerpts The New Yorker circulated.
“each of them not only deserved this prize more but also contributed more to humanity than both these poems combined.”
Young compares Malfoid fan-fiction writers with the Carson excerpts in the New Yorker post he quotes.
The case concerns the Malfoid-versus-Carson comparison. Young endorses that comparison and later maintains his relative judgment.
