So here is what is boils down to.

1918 was the first year the award was given for a novel, but we are reading all the winners from when the category was changed to fiction: 1948.

Awards not given in: 1954, 57 64 71 74 77 (-6)

Have previously read:  2008,2007,2001,1998,1975,1961,1953 (-7)

Years award was given: 63
Years of no award:         6

Previously read:            - 7
 total books yet to read: 50


25 books per person.  (Kurt and Jesse)
Slightly over 2 books a month. 

I had this idea, (pulitizerphilia) to attempt to read all the fiction winners when I realized a large majority of the best books I have read in the past year coincidentally, shared the same distinction.  
And I know, technically, to read all of the pulitzer winners for a novel we would be reading works from 1918, but I think nearly 50 books per-person is definitely too ambitious.  So we are reading all of the "Fiction" winners.  When I say we, I mean me, (Jesse) currently located in NY, and current Londonite (?) Kurt.  So this will function as a form of pen-pality through (hopefully) great literature.


That is all.
