Congratulations to Richard Powers and The Overstory, which won the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. It's a significant achievement, not only for the author (who in my opinion should have won years ago for The Time of Our Singing in 2004) but for fiction that takes the world seriously--that is, the world beyond urban relationships, beyond only human relationships to other humans. It may be too late to make the crucial difference, but if there is time to avert the end of life as we know it, the importance of human relationship to other life must be acknowledged.
Here's a link to my review posted here in October 2018.
