Now that Dominican author Junot Díaz has joined the ultra-exclusive Pulitzer league, his one and only Latino predecessor has some advice for him.
“Don’t let that overwhelm you,” says Cuban-American novelist Oscar Hijuelos. “Remember the work and keep your feet on the ground.”
For 18 years, Hijuelos was the only Latino writer ever to win a Pulitzer Prize for literature, thanks to his unforgettable saga of Cuban musicians making it in New York, “The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love.””*
