Birthdays

On this day, August 21, in 1937, writer Robert Stone was born in Brooklyn, New York. His second novel, Dog Soldiers, which “deals with the fall of the counterculture in America, mistrust of authority figures, and the end of the optimism of the 1960s”, won the National Book Award for Fiction in 1975 and was made into the 1978 film Who’ll Stop the Rain. He has also twice been a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Literature. His 13th work and final novel, Death of the Black Haired Girl was released in 2013. Mr. Stone died from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on January 10, 2015; he was 77.
