Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Radcliffe Fellow Geraldine Brooks prefers to build her fiction from a spare set of facts: 'There's a need for real imaginative engagement to fill the void.

The actions of the character drive the story and as the story emerges I find out what it is that I need to research.' (Staff photo Stephanie Mitchell/Harvard News Office)
