Geraldine Brooks

Author

Geraldine Brooks is an Australian-American author and journalist who won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for March. She was a foreign correspondent for the Wall Street Journal before turning to fiction. Caleb's Crossing is a historical novel inspired by the true story of the first Native American to graduate from Harvard in 1665 — a... richly imagined story of faith, education, and the collision of cultures in colonial New England. Brooks's fiction is celebrated for its meticulous research and its literary ambition. Her audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers powerful, Pulitzer Prize-winning historical fiction — novels that bring overlooked moments in history to vivid life. Read more Show less
