Nobel non-laureates, non-male
- Descrizione
- To date, only twelve women have won the Nobel Prize for literature. This list is for those who should have, but didn't. To qualify, an author should be dead, female, and not have won the literature prize. Please add the "most representative" book by the author you want to nominate; if there's already one of her works here, vote for it.

- thorold: Apart from being one of the best and most original prose stylists writing in English in the 20th century, Woolf was also one of the founders of feminist criticism.

- ahef1963: I agree with this entirely; Murdoch is wonderful, and this book is my favourite by her.

- bluepiano: Perhaps not the most obvious choice of book given that she's often thought of as a nouveau roman writer, but this is my favourite so far.--I can't help thinking that she must have been considered for the prize more than once.
