Suzanne Berne's A
Crime in the Neighborhood takes a snapshot of one American suburb, circa 1972--and what it finds there
isn't pretty. The winner of this year's Orange Prize for Fiction is a harrowing look at a childhood in which no
one--not even the 10-year-old narrator--is entirely innocent. Visit the Orange
Prize page to find more great novels written by women. |

Cry Woolf! Michael Cunningham's The Hours
has beaten out more than 270 other novels and short-story collections to win the 1999 PEN/Faulkner
Award. Named for William Faulkner and affiliated with the international writers' organization PEN, this is
one of the few literary prizes with which writers honor their peers. This year's winner is a daring, stylistically
innovative novel that pays tribute to Mrs.
Dalloway even as it reimagines Virginia Woolf's classic through the lens of two contemporary women's lives. |
