The 1961 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction was awarded to a novel that took place in in the fictional "tired old town" of Maycomb, Alabama. It was the author's only novel until a companion novel was published in 2015.
Name the award-winning novel. (2 points) To Kill a Mockingbird.
Name the author. (2 points) Harper Lee
Name the late-arriving companion novel. (3 points) Go set a watchman. I was all fired up to get this book and make my book club read it until I read the reviews. What a shame. Wish somebody lost his shirt on this, but I'm sure he didn't.
Total points: 23
