Roman von Stacey Levine nach Pulitzer-Nominierung neu aufgelegt

Stacey Levine erfuhr von ihrer Nominierung als Finalistin für den Pulitzer-Preis 2025 in der Kategorie Belletristik durch einen Facebook-Beitrag, während sie bei der Arbeit in Seattle war. Ihr ursprünglich bei einem kleinen Verlag erschienener Roman Mice 1961 wurde nun von Ecco neu herausgegeben. Diese Entwicklung verschafft dem unverwechselbaren Stil der Autorin größere Aufmerksamkeit.

Levine, die seit fünfzehn Jahren kreatives Schreiben am Seattle Central College unterrichtet, entdeckte die Nachricht an einem Montagmorgen im Mai 2025. Ein Freund von der Elliott Bay Book Company markierte sie in einem Beitrag, der auf die Pulitzer-Website verlinkte. Sie beschrieb den Moment als unerwartet und merkte an, dass sie die Nachricht zusammen mit anderen Schriftstellern aus Seattle erhielt und sich am nächsten Tag krankmelden musste, nachdem sie E-Mails von der New York Times erhalten hatte.
