The Academy recognized Carson for her bold and inventive work, noting that her writing engages in a playful dialogue with classical traditions to create new forms for contemporary literature. Carson, 76, has published several books, including "H of H Playbook" and "Wrong Norma." Her previous honors include the T.S. Eliot Prize, which she was the first woman to receive in 2001.
