Happy Pulitzer Prize Day: Counting on a Fiction Winner

 via Shelf Awareness

"We're counting on a Pulitzer win this year because of all the literary awards, I feel like the Pulitzer sells the most books. Which is why it was so disappointing last year that there wasn't one at all."

--Michele Filgate, events coordinator at the Community Bookstore, Brooklyn, N.Y., in a New York Times piece anticipating today's announcement of this year's Pulitzer Prize winners.
Last year, no Pulitzer for fiction was awarded for the first time in 35 years.
