Posted on April 21, 2011

Jennifer Egan won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction for her novel, A Visit From The Goon Squad. The Pulitzer board called the book "an inventive investigation of growing up and growing old in the digital age, displaying a big-hearted curiosity about cultural change at warp speed."

Deadline.com reports that HBO has acquired rights to the book to make a tv series. Deadline says a screenwriter is not attached to the project, but the project is expected to move quickly.
