唐娜·塔特(Donna Tartt)
“The Goldfinch” (Little, Brown)
《金翅雀》(The Goldfinch)，利特尔，布朗出版社(Little, Brown)
Ms. Tartt’s best-selling novel is about a boy who comes into possession of a painting after an explosion at a museum.
17世纪画家卡莱尔·法布里契亚画作《金翅雀》。普利策小说奖得主唐娜·塔特说，画作出乎意料地契合她创作同名小说时的构思。
塔特的畅销书讲述了一个男孩在一次博物馆爆炸后得到了一幅油画的故事。
In a phone conversation on Monday, Ms. Tartt, 50, said the novel “was always about a child who had stolen a painting,” but it was only two years into writing the book that she saw “The Goldfinch,” a 17th-century work by Carel Fabritius.
50岁的塔特在周一接受电话采访时说，这部小说“是关于一个偷油画的孩子的故事”，但在开始创作这本书两年后，她才看到《金翅雀》，这幅17世纪画家卡莱尔·法布里契亚(Carel Fabritius)的作品。
“It fit into the plot of the book I was writing in ways I couldn’t have imagined,” she said. “It had to be a small painting that a child could carry, and that a child could be obsessed by.”
“它出乎意料地适合我创作这本书时的构思，”她说。“它必须非常小，一个孩子可以拿得动，也会令一个孩子迷恋不已。”
Finalists Philipp Meyer, “The Son”; Bob Shacochis, “The Woman Who Lost Her Soul.”

ANNIE BAKER
安妮·贝克(Annie Baker)
“The Flick”
《电影》(The Flick)
Ms. Baker’s wry drama about three misfits who work at a movie theater features long, lifelike silences in sometimes-awkward conversations.
贝克这部嘲讽的喜剧是关于三个在影院工作，无法适应环境的人，漫长沉重的沉默不时出现在笨拙的对话中间。
One of the fastest-rising playwrights in New York, Ms. Baker, 33, drew inspiration for her play from its unusual setting: a theater where the rows of seats faced the play’s audience.
贝克33岁，是纽约迅速崛起的剧作家之一，这部剧本的灵感来自它那非同寻常的背景：一座剧院，椅子面向舞台剧的观众们。
“I thought about it for years before I started writing — the idea of characters looking up at the screen, but facing the audience,” Ms. Baker said in a telephone interview.
“我在动笔之前已经构思多年——就是这个角色们仰头看着屏幕，但是面向舞台剧观众的创意，”贝克在接受电话采访时说。

“The Internal Enemy: Slavery and War in Virginia, 1772-1832” (W.W. Norton)
《内部敌人：奴隶制与弗吉尼亚的战争，1772-1832》(The Internal Enemy: Slavery and War in Virginia, 1772-1832)，W·W·诺顿出版社(W.W. Norton)。
At the heart of Mr. Taylor’s book is the War of 1812, when thousands of slaves sought liberty by escaping to the British side, in what Mr. Taylor, a professor at the University of Virginia, calls “incredible acts of resourcefulness and courage.”
泰勒这本书的核心是关于1812年战争，当时有上千名奴隶为获自由投靠英国一方，弗吉尼亚大学教授泰勒说，这是“不可思议的行为，显示了智慧与勇气。”
Mr. Taylor, 58, drew on records of a commission to compensate slave owners for their lost property. “It was a great opportunity to be able to tell a story about the nature of slavery and freedom in the early years of the Republic,” he said.
泰勒现年58岁，本书主要依据当时一个赔偿奴隶主损失的委员会的记载。“这是个好机会，可以用来讲述共和国早年的奴隶制与自由的本质”

“Margaret Fuller: A New American Life” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt)
《玛格丽特·富勒：新美国生活》(Margaret Fuller: A New American Life)，休顿·米弗林·哈科特出版社(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt)。
Ms. Marshall used to think that Margaret Fuller — the pioneering writer, critic and women’s rights advocate who died in a shipwreck in 1850 — was too well known to need a new biography.
玛格丽特·富勒是一位先锋作家、评论家与女权主义的鼓吹者，1850年死于船难，马歇尔本来觉得她太有名，并不需要一本新的传记。
But when mentioned, her name drew only blank looks, said Ms. Marshall, 59, who teaches at Emerson College. “I had to go back and rectify that.”
但是，当她向人们提起富勒时，却只换来茫然的眼神。马歇尔现年59岁，在爱默生大学任教，她说，“我只好回过头去，纠正这个问题。”
She added, “As I immersed myself in her life and began hearing her voice, I fell back in love with her.”
她还说，“当我沉浸在她的生平之中，开始倾听她的声音时，我开始爱上她了。”

费金现年51岁，评奖委员会称赞他的书“巧妙地把调查报道与历史研究结合起来，探索了一座新泽西海滨小镇与水质和空气污染相关的儿童群发癌症事件。”
He was able to finish the book when he joined New York University to teach science journalism. He said that he wanted to show readers how patterns of illness are studied “to figure out the relationship between what is happening in our environment and human health.”

“Become Ocean” (Taiga Press/Theodore Front Musical Literature)
《成为海洋》(Become Ocean)，泰加出版/西奥多前沿音乐文学(Taiga Press/Theodore Front Musical Literature)
The Pulitzer committee called “Become Ocean” a “haunting orchestral work that suggests a relentless tidal surge, evoking thoughts of melting polar ice and rising sea levels.”
普利策评奖委员会说《成为海洋》是一部“余音绕梁的交响乐，描绘出无休无止的海潮，令人联想到正在融化的极地冰山与升高的海平线”。
Mr. Adams, 61, said he composed the piece while on the Pacific coast in Mexico, but that it was also inspired by Alaska, where he lived for decades. “What I really hope is that the music now has become its own place,” he said of the work, which the Seattle Symphony will play on May 6 at Carnegie Hall.
亚当斯现年61岁，他说自己是在墨西哥的太平洋海岸谱写了这首乐曲，但也从他生活了几十年的阿拉斯加获得灵感。“我希望这首乐曲真的成为海洋，”他说。这首乐曲将由西雅图交响乐团于5月6日在卡耐基音乐厅演奏。

这是赛沙德利的第三部诗集，其中有一组短小、歌词般的三联诗探索了当代美国的生活与身份认同，还有一首名为《个人散文》(Personal Essay)的长诗，以及一首关于在加拿大的太平洋海域捕鱼的散文诗。“我一直都想写一本书，书名就能反映出这本书的形式，”现年60岁的赛沙德利在布鲁克林家中接受电话采访时说，“我本想写七首，但最后只是三首。”

GUARDIAN U.S.
《卫报》美国版(Guardian U.S.)
THE WASHINGTON POST
《华盛顿邮报》(The Washington Post)
The Post and Guardian U.S. were recognized, separately, for their reporting based on classified documents leaked by Edward J. Snowden that revealed “widespread secret surveillance by the National Security Agency.” The revelations have led President Obama to call for a public debate over “the right balance between protecting our security and preserving our freedoms,” even as the United States government has charged Mr. Snowden — who was granted asylum by Russia — with violating the Espionage Act.
《华盛顿邮报》与《卫报》美国版分别因报道爱德华·J·斯诺登(Edward J. Snowden)泄露的机密文件而获奖，这些文件揭露了“国家安全局大规模秘密监控计划”。尽管美国政府指控斯诺登违反《反间谍法》，但这些披露报道迫使奥巴马总统公开讨论“保卫安全与保护自由之间的平衡”。斯诺登已获得俄罗斯庇护。
Using material leaked by Mr. Snowden, a former agency contractor, Guardian U.S. — an offshoot of the British newspaper The Guardian — and The Washington Post revealed a once-secret world of court rulings and surveillance tactics that allow the government to track domestic and international communications.
《卫报》美国版是英国《卫报》的旁支，它与《华盛顿邮报》使用前国安局承包商雇员斯诺登泄露的材料，披露出一个一度不为人知的世界，法院规定和监控手段令政府可以追踪国内外的各种通讯情况。
The documentary filmmaker Laura Poitras, 50, who was researching government surveillance, put Mr. Snowden in touch with Glenn Greenwald, 47, a lawyer and civil liberties advocate who was a columnist at Guardian U.S., and Barton Gellman, 53, a former Washington Post reporter who returned there to publish his work.
50岁的记录片制作者劳拉·博伊特拉斯(Laura Poitras)在研究政府监控措施时，帮助斯诺登与47岁律师、公民自由宣传者与《卫报》美国版的专栏作家格伦·格林沃尔德(Glenn Greenwald)，以及53岁的《华盛顿邮报》前记者巴顿·戈尔曼(Barton Gellman)取得了联系，戈尔曼随后回到《华盛顿邮报》发表了这篇报道。

突发新闻报道
STAFF, THE BOSTON GLOBE
《波士顿环球报》(The Boston Globe)员工
The Globe was awarded the prize for its reporting on the Boston Marathon bombing and the subsequent manhunt that left a terrified city in a daylong lockdown. The committee cited The Globe’s “exhaustive and empathetic coverage” and also its use of “photography and a range of digital tools to capture the full impact of the tragedy.” On its own website, the paper struck a somber note: “With the one-year anniversary of the bombings on Tuesday, and the 118th running of the race scheduled for next Monday, the region is remembering the pain of the bombings and vowing to move resolutely forward.”
《波士顿环球报》因报道波士顿马拉松爆炸案及其后对疑犯的搜捕而获奖，该搜捕令这座惊恐的城市在一整天内都处于一级防范状态。普利策委员会称《波士顿环球报》的报道“详尽无遗，令人感同身受”，并且使用“组照和各种数码工具，捕捉到这场悲剧的整体冲击。”《波士顿环球报》在报纸网站上发表了一条忧郁庄严的声明：“周二我们将迎来爆炸案一周年纪念日，下周一将举行这项马拉松赛的第118届赛事，这一地区铭记爆炸案所带来的痛苦，决心继续坚定前行。”

CHRIS HAMBY
克里斯·汉比(Chris Hamby)
The Center for Public Integrity, Washington.
公共诚信中心，华盛顿
Mr. Hamby’s three-part, 25,000-word series exposed how coal miners suffering from black lung disease were denied benefits through “a rigged system” of industry-hired doctors and lawyers, in the words of the Pulitzer committee. The reporting by Mr. Hamby, 28, which also was the basis of ABC News reports, earned the first Pulitzer Prize for the nonprofit, nonpartisan center, which is 25 years old. Mr. Hamby said, “The backbone of the articles were the documents and the data, but the heart of this was the miners themselves, the stories of all the suffering they have gone through and the hardships they have faced.”
汉比的报道分为三部分，共25000字，普利策委员会说，该文披露了患上黑肺病的矿工们如何被企业聘用的医生与律师所组成的“舞弊体系”拒付福利。汉比现年28岁，这篇报道亦成为ABC新闻报道的基础，同时也为这个拥有25年历史的非盈利、无党派中心赢得了第一个普利策奖。汉比说：“这些报道的主轴是文件和数据，但核心却是矿工们自己，他们所经历所有的痛苦，以及他们面对的所有困难。”

《坦帕湾时报》(The Tampa Bay Times)，佛罗里达州圣彼德斯堡
The Pulitzer committee singled out Mr. Hobson, 29, and Mr. LaForgia, 30, for articles that documented how a county agency placed homeless people, including children, in unsafe living conditions. Their series chronicled a trail of money from public coffers to operators of squalid rental units across the county.
普利策评委会将该奖授予29岁的霍布森和30岁的拉福尔贾是因为他们的文章记录了一个县机构如何把无家可归的人，包括儿童，置于不安全的生活环境中。他们的系列文章详细记录了该县公共金库中的钱如何流入了肮脏的租赁公寓的经营者手中。
The committee praised the reporters for “their relentless investigation” and noted that the revelations led to “swift reforms.”
评委会称赞这两位记者进行了“不懈的调查”，指出他们的报道引发了“迅速的改革”。
“They fired one manager overseeing the agency,” Mr. Hobson said in an interview. “Another manager resigned. They shuttered the agency. And they outsourced homeless services to several nonprofits.”
“他们解雇了监管该机构的一个主管，”霍布森在采访中说，“另一个主管辞职了。他们关闭了该机构。他们把对救助无家可归人员的服务外包给了几个非营利机构。”

The board praised Mr. Saslow, a 31-year-old staff writer, for his “unsettling and nuanced reporting” in a series of articles about the prevalence of food stamps in communities throughout America, including a town in Rhode Island whose economy revolves around the monthly payments and a family in Washington coping with cuts to the program. “These people have let you into their lives at these vulnerable times,” Mr. Saslow said of the subjects of his reporting, “and the way to repay that is to write full, honest stories about the things they are dealing with.”
评委会称赞31岁的特约撰稿人塞斯罗的“报道令人不安，细致入微”。他写了一系列文章，讲述在美国各地许多社区普遍存在的食品券，包括罗德岛的一个小镇，那里的经济围绕着每月补贴进行，以及华盛顿的一个家庭，他们在想办法应对该计划的补助金额缩减。“在这些脆弱的时期，这些人让你进入他们的生活，” 塞斯罗谈起自己的报道对象时说，“我回报的方式是完整、诚实地写出他们正在应对的事情。”

Mr. Philipps, 36, was a finalist in 2010 for another series about violent crimes committed by veterans.
菲利普斯撰写了一系列文章，报道在阿富汗战争和伊拉克战争中严重受伤的退伍老兵受到的治疗以及他们有时因为轻微犯罪而失去生活保障的情况。评委会表彰这一系列文章，是因为它采用数字手段讲述故事，引发了国会的调查。36岁的菲利普斯在2010年因为另一个关于退伍老兵暴力犯罪的系列文章而入围最终入围名单。

Mr. Szep, 45, and Mr. Marshall investigated the plight of the Rohingya, a persecuted Muslim minority in Myanmar who have frequently fallen into a web of trafficking and slave labor while trying to escape the country. The board noted the “courageous reports” that exposed the violent actions of Buddhist monks and the complicity of officials in Myanmar and Thailand. Stephen J. Adler, the editor in chief of Reuters, said the articles brought “the international dimensions” of the Rohingya to wider attention.
45岁的赛普和马歇尔调查了缅甸受迫害的穆斯林少数族裔罗辛亚人的困境，他们在试图逃离这个国家时经常陷入走私和奴役网络。评委会指出，这些“大胆的报道”揭露了佛教僧徒们的暴行以及缅甸和泰国官员们的勾结。路透社的主编斯蒂芬·J·阿德勒(Stephen J. Adler)说，这些文章让罗辛亚人的“国际境况”得到了更广泛的关注。

As the paper’s architecture critic, Ms. Saffron, 56, has covered everything from the relative beauty of different bike racks to threats to the city’s river views by new garage complexes. “I’ve been a finalist three times and I’ve been nominated by The Inquirer at least 10 times,” she said. “Because I have been a finalist a lot, I just thought I would never win this. It feels amazing; really nice, but also kind of unbelievable.”
56岁的萨弗隆是该报的建筑评论员，她报道的内容广泛，从不同自行车停放架的相对美感到新汽车修理厂综合建筑对该市河景的影响。“我三次入围最终入围名单，至少十次获得《询问报》的提名，”她说，“因为我进入决赛太多次了，我想我永远也得不了这个奖了。这让人吃惊;太棒了，还有点难以置信。”

The Oregonian was recognized for 10 editorials that were part of its extended commentary on a long-term preoccupation in Oregon: public-employee pension reform.
《俄勒冈人》获得评委会肯定是因为它的十篇社论，这些社论是它关于长期困扰俄勒冈的一个社会问题——公务员退休金改革——的扩展评论的一部分。
The winning editorials particularly pressed a Democratic governor, John Kitzhaber, and a Democrat-dominated Legislature to trim what were described as unsustainable public-pension programs, though many Democrats have been supported by the state’s public employee unions, The Oregonian’s submission letter noted.
获胜的社论特别敦促民主党主管约翰·基察伯(John Kitzhaber)以及一个由民主党主导的立法机关削减难以维持的公共退休金计划，不过《俄勒冈人》的推荐信提到，很多民主党人得到了该州公务员工会的支持。

《纽约时报》
Mr. Hicks, who had recently married, was picking up wedding gifts in central Nairobi when Somali militants opened fire with machine guns at a nearby mall. He arrived moments later at a chaotic scene — blood and bodies were everywhere and the terrorists remained at large — and went to work with the small camera he always carried. Mr. Hicks, 44, who was cited by the committee for his “skill and bravery,” began working with The Times in 1999 and was part of a Times team that won the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting.
新婚的希克斯在内罗毕市中心领取结婚礼物时，索马里武装分子在附近的购物中心用机关枪开火。他很快赶到混乱现场——到处都是鲜血和尸体，恐怖分子仍未被控制——用总是随身携带的小相机拍照。44岁的希克斯因其“技巧和勇敢”得到评委会的表彰。他1999年加入《纽约时报》。本报2009年获得普利策国际新闻报道奖时，他是团队成员之一。

FEATURE WRITING
专题写作奖
NO AWARD
空缺
The Pulitzer Prize for feature writing went to no one, an unusual but not unprecedented decision that typically means that no finalist mustered the mandatory majority of votes. (The 2012 prize for fiction went unawarded, for instance, the 11th time in that category’s history.) The last year in which no feature writing award was given was 2004.
普利策专题写作奖没有授予任何人，这个决定不常见，但也并非没有先例。这通常是因为没有哪篇作品得到了规定的多数票(比如，普利策奖第11次出现小说类奖项空缺)。上次专题写作奖空缺是在2004年。
Finalists Scott Farwell, The Dallas Morning News; Christopher Goffard, The Los Angeles Times; Mark Johnson, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
