T. S. Stribling won the 1933 Pulitzer Prize for his novel, The Store, the second book in his Vaiden Trilogy. The series follows three generations of a middle Tennessee family and is considered significant more for its stark depiction of social conditions during the Civil War and Reconstruction than for the author's writing style.
