The 2021 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction goes to

Louise Erdrich for The Night Watchman!

Based on the extraordinary life of National Book Award-winning author Louise Erdrich’s grandfather who worked as a night watchman and carried the fight against Native dispossession from rural North Dakota all the way to Washington, D.C., this powerful novel explores themes of love and death with lightness and gravity and unfolds with the elegant prose, sly humor, and depth of feeling of a master craftsman. The Night Watchman is a majestic work of fiction from this revered cultural treasure.


Great book from a wonderful writer.
