When Headlines Lie
I clicked on the link to this article, titled "10 novelists to follow in 2009", with the idea that I would see a list of 10 novelists to follow in 2009. I was incorrect; there are two dozen authors mentioned, including the three occupants of the top two spots (there was a tie), but at no point did the article provide me with a list indicating the who comprised the remainder of the rankings (which was based on a survey of leading Mexican writers). I find this oversight extremely (and disproportionately) frustrating. It would be like writing one of those "501 vital verbs" books, and filling it with 1,500 verbs.
