By HILLEL ITALIEAP National WriterNEW YORK (AP) — Novelist Megha Majumdar, one of this year’s winners of medals presented by the American Library Association, doesn’t only visit libraries for the reading. “Yiyun Li has courageously put almost inexplicable events into words that will benefit all who encounter her book.”Previous winners of the Carnegie medals include Percival Everett, Jennifer Egan and Donna Tartt. “I would walk to shelf to shelf,” she remembers. In her native Kolkata, one library was essentially a sidewalk display from which Majumdar borrowed “stacks” of Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys novels. We can pluck any book off the shelf and read for a bit, we can think and wander in our minds.
