The Pulitzer Prize

The 2005 Pulitzer Prizes were announced today. The winner of the prize for Fiction is Gilead, by Marilynne Robinson. The book is Robinson's second, and her first in a couple of decades. I haven't read it, nor had I heard of Robinson until Gilead was published earlier last year. Supposedly she is quite a writer and that this book had been anticipated for quite a long time. I suppose I shall have to read it (along with the other Pulitzer Prize winning novels I still have to read).
