Since Mr. Mo Yan awarded this year's Nobel Prize for Literature, cause the craze of buying and reading his writing immediately. From news said, most of the people just for he gain the award to buy his writing to read. And they never know his writing before this, I don't think it is necessary to buy his writing just for his award, because I think this approach is a bit do not respect him to a certain extent.

Many good writers are not known in other countries until they get a mayor international prize. Some of them will be forgotten later on, some will last a lot more. It depends on many things among which is how universal is their work. If I were Mr. Mo Yan, I would not feel it is a lack of respect to buy my books because I`m a Nobel Prize. I`d thank the Nobel Prize that made my books be known.
