Malamud Awarded For 'The Fixer'
Bernard Malamud, visiting lecturer in the freshman seminar program, has won the 1967 National Book Award for fiction for his novel, The Fixer.
The prize award was made last Friday but will not be announced officially until Wednesday. Malamud also won the prize in 1959 for his collection of short stories, The Magic Barrel.
The Fixer is a semi-historical account of the life of a Jewish handyman in Russia who was falsely accused of ritual murder.
