The selection of Steinbeck was heavily criticized, and described as "one of the Academy's biggest mistakes" in one Swedish newspaper.[5] While there were some positive reactions in America,[7] The New York Times asked why the Nobel committee gave the award to an author whose "limited talent is, in his best books, watered down by tenth-rate philosophising", adding, "we think it interesting that the laurel was not awarded to a writer ... whose significance, influence and sheer body of work had already made a more profound impression on the literature of our age".[5] Steinbeck himself, when asked if he deserved the Nobel on the day of the announcement, replied: "Frankly, no."[5] Today, however, many of Steinbecks works are widely read and considered classics of Western literature.[8]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:btt7advdqkqna7frwppk5wml/bafkreiddpzpruicai6w2b4usr4oylrds6uajhmrvxhtevbxoc6ab7x3lha)
