- Pulitzer Prize-Winner Rejects Israeli Translation of Book
Wednesday, June 20, 2012
Writer Alice Walker says an Israeli publisher can't release a new Hebrew edition of her Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, "The Color Purple," because of Israel's treatment of the Palestinian people.
Walker said in a letter to Yediot Books that Israel practices apartheid. She says Israel must change its policies before her works can be published there.
