💨 Abstract

Percival Everett's novel "James," a radical re-imagining of "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" from an enslaved character's perspective, won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction. Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' drama "Purpose" about a Black family in crisis won for drama. Both books explore race in U.S. history and culture.
