PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST

We are thrilled that The Unicorn Woman by Gayl Jones is a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction Finalist in 2025.

Turning her unflinching eye and richly lyrical style to 1950s America, Jones weaves an ambitious, witty and moving vision of the segregated South. Teeming with the unforgettable characters, The Unicorn Woman marks a bold new direction for one of the most dazzling and inventive writers of our times.
