Sarah Shun-lien Bynum’s Ms. Hemple Chronicles has been named a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction.

The Award, named for William Faulkner, who used his Nobel Prize funds to create an award for young writers, and PEN, an international writers’ organization, is a national prize honoring the five best writers of fiction in a calendar year.  Five books are selected from over 300 works submitted, making this the largest peer-juried award in the country. Sarah will be honored at a ceremony held in Washington at the Folger Shakespeare Library in May 2009.
