Awards and Nominations
The Stone Diaries, which is Shields' most famous novel, won the 1993 Governor General's Award for English language fiction in Canada and the 1995 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in the United States. It is currently the only novel to have won both awards, because being an American-born naturalized Canadian, Shields was eligible for both.
It also won the National Book Critics Circle Award and was nominated for the Man Booker Prize.
