Well, he’s only eighty-two.
At a poetry reading several years ago, I had a conversation with someone who reported that Ashbery has been short-listed for the Nobel several times. (I know, there’s no official short list.)
No disrespect to Herta Müller, of whose work I know nothing.

I have been a reader of Ashbery's poetry and share the same sentiment. Is he going to be awarded the Nobel honor.
