Two of my favorite reads in the last couple years have been Pulitzer winners. Overstory by Richard Powers was amazing. It dealt with some very heavy stuff but it was a unique and memorable read. The other was the road by cormac mccarthy. Again it was a heavy read but one that I won’t forget anytime soon. I could pull up a list of past Pulitzer winners and sort through them but that’s why I have Reddit. What are your guy’s favorite Pulitzer winners and why?

How about 1986 Pulitzer winner Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry?. I read it this year because Joe Abercrombie lists it as one of his favorite books, and once I finished it I had to agree. It’s one of the best novels I’ve ever read.
And if you’re interested in more McCarthy, No Country for Old Men is amazing. Also read it this year and it had a much deeper impact on me than the film did. So good. So chilling.
