NEW YORK Apr 17, 2006 (AP)— "March," Geraldine Brooks' novel that imagines the life of the fictional father in Louisa May Alcott's "Little Women," was awarded the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for fiction on Monday.
For the first time since 1997, the Pulitzer board declined to award a prize for drama.
Brooks depicted the life of John March, the father absent for most of Alcott's famed 1868 novel of four sisters growing up in Massachusetts during the Civil War.
