| 1961 | 4129 Add An Event | "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee wins the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. At the heart of the novel, which takes place in Alabama between 1933 and 1935, is the trial of Arthur "Boo" Radley, a simpleminded but gentle poor white Southerner, accused of rape. The novel examines the themes of mental illness, alcoholism, drug addiction, physical handicaps, incest, and, in the climactic scene of the trial, homosexuality, as the witness who leads to Boo's acquittal is the alleged rape victim's brother, who claims that he, not his sister, was caught in bed with Boo, by the sister, who was then beaten by their father for suggesting that a Southern boy could be "a fairy." Lee, who based narrator Jean Louise "Scout" Finch on herself, has taken some criticism, partly for allegations that the book was at least partly written by Truman Capote, author of "In Cold Blood" and her friend since childhood, but also for having the jury be racially integrated, which was not likely to have happened in Alabama in the 1930s. Capote will later claim that he wrote none of the book, but that he did inspire the character of Dill Harris, Scout's childhood best friend, and that of Boo Radley. The novel will be made into a film in 1962, and Gregory Peck will win the Oscar for Best Actor as Atticus Finch, Scout's father and Boo's lawyer.
