My question is.
I often hear:
1.The book is written
2. The book has been written
in the same situation, what's the differnce between them?
I share the view that 1 is less common, but it does occur in literary criticism:

The book is badly written.
The book is written from the point of view of an English teacher.

Ps - Your title should be Which is right?
