Pulitzern för skönlitteratur har delats ut sedan 1948, men redan från starten fanns skönlitteraturen representerad genom Pulitzer Prize for the Novel (Pulitzerpriset för en roman). Romanerna ska vara skrivna av amerikanska författare och ska företrädesvis beskriva amerikanskt liv.
Till Litteraturpristolvan tänker jag läsa den allra senaste vinnaren, Colson Whiteheads Nickelpojkarna.
