Not much I can add to this. I stil think readability is vital to a good book.

I read this article on the BBC website about a new literature award to rival the Booker.

The reason for the new award is the Booker’s supposed requirement for ‘a notion of readability’.

Now I know I am new to all this, but surely the minimum requirement of any good book, let alone a prize winning example, is that you can read it?

It’s probably just me.
