With Now, in November —a novel published in 1934 during the Great Depression—, author Josephine Johnson became the youngest winner of the Pulitzer Prize. We read the story narrated by Marget, who tries to piece together her family's life from the time she was ten years old. We learn about the events that unfold from her perspective, and as she grows older, we get a glimpse of the increasing devastation wrought by the circumstances of the time.
