Not only did Paul Zindel win a Pulitzer Prize as well as an Obie Prize for his 1970 play The Effect of
Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds, but be was one of the earliest writers in the field of
contemporary (当代的) literature for young adults (成人). The Pigman, published in 1968, is still one of
the most well-known and widely-taught novels in the genre. The American Library Association has named
it one of the 100 Best of the Best Books for Young Adults published between 1967 and 1992, and Zindel's
autobiography, The Pigman and Me, was among the 100 Best of the Best Books published for teenagers
during the last part of the twentieth century. Six of Zindel's books, in fact, have been voted the Best Books
for Young Adults, and most of his recent horror books-such as The Doom Stone and Rats-have been
chosen as Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers. Clearly, he was a writer who knew how to
interest contemporary children. Recognizing that, the American Library Association in 2002 honored Paul
Zindel with the Margaret A. Edwards Prize for his lifetime achievements, and later that same year he was
presented with the ALAN Prize for his contributions to Young Adult Literature. With his passing, young
readers, teachers, and librarians have lost a great friend.
