Yesterday and today, The New Yorker's book blog Page Turner posted this 2 part letter by Pulitzer Prize Winning novelist and 2012 Pulitzer jury member Michael Cunningham explaining what really happened behind closed doors of the finalist selection process.

Click here for part 1.  I was holding this post while I waited for part 2, but it is not up yet.  The link to Part 1 should send you to part 2 once it is up.

I am interested to see how this resolves.Cunningham has thrown down the gauntlet.  The jury is obviously not at fault here.
