Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout wins Pulitzer Prize for fiction

I suppose I was half correct with my Pulitzer guess on Friday.... Updike didn't win but one of the outsiders did. 

Elizabeth Strout's collection of 13 tales about a retired schoolteacher named Olive Kitteridge has taken top spot as the Pulitzer Prize winner in the fiction category. 

Also nominated in the category were The Plague of Doves by Louise Erdrich and All Souls by Christine Schutt.
