I've been having this ongoing argument with my friend. He keeps telling me that basically all (or mostly all) contemporary british fiction is pretty much shite, and that really even for most of the last century there's precious little british writing he'd want to read. I keep maintaining that there must be good contemporary british writing, if only b/c of population size. I can't really point to anything, though. In his defense the british writers we tend to hear about most on this side of the atlantic are Ian McEwan and Zadie Smith, and neither of them seem all that great...
So, lay it on me. Who do you love?
