Congratulations to this year's Pulitzer Prize winners.
Fiction - "The Goldfinch" by Donna Tartt
Drama - "The Flick" by Annie Baker
History - "The Internal Enemy: Slavery and War in Virginia, 1772-1832" by Alan Taylor
Biography - "Margaret Fuller: A New American Life" by Megan Marshall
Poetry - "3 Sections" by Vijay Seshadri
General Nonfiction - "Toms River: A Story of Science and Salvation" by Dan Fagin
Music - "Become Ocean" by John Luther Adams
Have any of you read or listened to any of these? I'm intrigued by the description of the Drama winner "The Flick" since it's film related:
The Flick, a still from the Playwright Horizons production last year
a thoughtful drama with well-crafted characters that focuses on three employees of a Massachusetts art-house movie theater, rendering lives rarely seen on the stage.
Many Pulitzer Prize winning plays end up as movies eventually. You can see past winners...

The big question today was whether the Pulitzer Prize board would support the papers that published Edward Snowden‘s revelations about the National Security Agency’s widespread secret surveillance — which former Vice President Dick Cheney said made him a “traitor.” And the organization did, giving The Guardian and The Washington Post the Public Service award. The Guardian helped to “spark a debate about the relationship between the government and the public over issues of security and privacy,” the board said, while the Post “helped the public understand how the disclosures fit into the larger framework of national security.” In the letters and drama prizes: Donna Tartt won the fiction prize for her coming-of-age novel The Goldfinch. The drama award went to Annie Baker’s The Flick, about three employees of a Massachusetts art house movie theater. The biography award went to Megan Marshall’s Margaret Fuller: A New American Life.
