 * Keep. Satisfies criteria 5 of the guideline WP:NBOOK. The author won a nobel prize for literature. You can't use an essay to reject a guideline, especially when the essay is garbage. James500 (talk) 18:08, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
 * You can easily merge it to the author's page. There's no references used in the article. Plus, there's no indication she won it on /that/ book. Plus the page is just a stub and tells nothing of the book. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk • ✍️ Contributions) Please ping me if you had replied 18:16, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the author's article. These micro bot-stubs do not serve a purpose. -- » Shadowowl  &#124;  talk  12:38, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Procedural keep as nominator states they want this redirected, that discussion should be carried out on the article talkpage not here at afd. Coolabahapple (talk) 03:29, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

<div class="xfd_relist" style="border-top: 1px solid #AAA; border-bottom: 1px solid #AAA; padding: 0px 25px;"> Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Per Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Archive 71, there is a consensus that redirecting may be discussed at AfD. It seems worthwhile to have some further discussion of whether this book is independently notable, or whether it should be redirected to the article on its (very notable) author.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, –&#8239;Joe (talk) 15:14, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Authors do not win a Nobel for a particular book, but for their overall work. (It's not like the Pulitzer). Any full-scale book by a author of such great importance is in my opinion almost certainly notable, and the article should be sourced by those who can work in the appropriate language. I strongly favor redirecting and combining for minor authors.  DGG ( talk ) 16:02, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - As per DGG and User:James500. Being a stub of a notable topic is not a reason to delete an article.  Stubs of notable topics are always better than no articles. --Oakshade (talk) 04:24, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
