Daniel Kraus Wins 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction with Angel Down as a “breathless novel of World War I, a stylistic tour-de-force that blends such genres as allegory, magical realism and science fiction into a cohesive whole, told in a single sentence.”

Today is Harper Lee’s 100th birthday.

Born in a small town in Alabama, where her father worked as a lawyer, Lee loved #books. One of her childhood friends was Truman Capote, who spent time in #Monroeville as a boy. Years later, she turned the world she knew into a novel about the difficult bravery of doing what is right when the world refuses to do so.

Do you like her novel To Kill a Mockingbird?
