Gilbert King's DEVIL IN THE GROVE wins Pulitzer

We are thrilled to announce that Gilbert King's illuminating DEVIL IN THE GROVE won the Pulitzer Prize for non-fiction for 2013. The Pulitzer committee describes King's work as "a richly detailed chronicle of racial injustice in the Florida town of Groveland in 1949, involving four black men falsely accused of rape and drawing a civil rights crusader, and eventual Supreme Court justice, into the legal battle." Congratulations to his agent, Farley Chase.
