Speaking of which....
Again, some more digging by the splendid Independent, going a little wider than just an award. Not that I'm biased in any way, naturally......
I thought this a really interesting article - doubtless all in the States know these details, but to learn yet more about the machinery behind the book section of the Pulitzer is a bit of an eye-opener from across the pond.
I always had this vision of it as glittering tower of journalistic endeavour, and the same for its book awards, but it seems it is just like all the others - possibly a bit more arcane. [ As if that were possible, sometimes.... ]
It would seem the process is not quite fit for purpose, really, going by this years debacle.
