I had an English teacher who was felt that that
no great English literature had been written since the
time of Milton.  She didn't mean that  nothing worth 
reading had been written, just nothing exceptionally good.
Her opinion of science fiction was extremely low.  I asked
her to read "Mortal Gods" which was a 3 page short story
by Orson Scott Card, and her reaction was quite favorable.
I think that for those who have poor opinions of the quality
of SF, Card is a very good writer.
