Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSCHOLAR. Almost all the sources cited are either primary/non-independent. The only exception is a single review of Gertz's book which is not sufficient by itself to establish notability. WJ94 (talk) 12:24, 15 July 2023 (UTC) Edit: I've just noticed that there's a second review cited in the article for a second book. Nevertheless, I still don't think that having authored two books each with a single review (on a website which seems to review a lot of classics books) is sufficient for GNG/NSCHOLAR/NAUTHOR.

 * Keep. There are many more reviews than just the ones appearing in the as-nominated article; did the nominator perform any WP:BEFORE searches? I found 11 reviews of four books. I think that's enough for WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for finding those sources. I did perform a WP:BEFORE search for sources, but clearly not thoroughly enough. I am happy to withdraw this nomination. WJ94 (talk) 09:50, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
