Exciting news for book lovers!
The Pulitzer Prize list has just been announced and Dominican-American author Junot Diaz has been awarded the ‘Pulitzer Prize for Fiction’ for his first novel; “Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao “. I haven’t read it yet but I’m adding it to my wish list on Amazon as soon as I finish up here!
Interestingly, there was no Pulitzer awarded for ‘Editorial Writing’. Speaks volumes about the quality of today’s editorial journalism…
Also announced today is the Orange Shortlist:
Lauren Groff – The Monsters of Templeton
Joanna Kavenna – Inglorious
Lauren Liebenberg – The Voluptuous Delights of Peanut Butter and Jam
Does that last title make anyone else feel hungry?
