Question: Which author won more Pulitzer Prizes, John Kennedy Toole or Flannery O'Connor?
Context: The Neon Bible is John Kennedy Toole's first novel, written at the age of 16.  Its main appeal is as an early look at the writer who would later write "A Confederacy of Dunces". Mary Flannery O'Connor (March 25, 1925August 3, 1964) was an American writer and essayist.  She wrote two novels and thirty-two short stories, as well as a number of reviews and commentaries.  She was a Southern writer who often wrote in a Southern Gothic style and relied heavily on regional settings and grotesque characters.  Her writing also reflected her Roman Catholic faith and frequently examined questions of morality and ethics.  Her posthumously compiled "Complete Stories" won the 1972 U.S. National Book Award for Fiction and has been the subject of enduring praise. John Kennedy Toole ( ; December 17, 1937 – March 26, 1969) was an American novelist from New Orleans, Louisiana, whose posthumously published novel "A Confederacy of Dunces" won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.  He also wrote "The Neon Bible".  Although several people in the literary world felt his writing skills were praiseworthy, Toole's novels were rejected during his lifetime.  After suffering from paranoia and depression due in part to these failures, he committed suicide at the age of 31. Jaroslav Kořán (January 17, 1940 – June 2, 2017) was a Czech translator, writer, screenwriter, and politician.

The Neon Bible is a 1995 drama film written and directed by Terence Davies, based on the novel of the same name by John Kennedy Toole.

His abusive father (Denis Leary) enlists in the army during World War II and disappears, leaving David to take care of his mother (Diana Scarwid) with his Aunt Mae (Gena Rowlands), who is a singer.  It was filmed in Atlanta, Crawfordville, and Madison, Georgia. A Confederacy of Dunces is a picaresque novel by American novelist John Kennedy Toole which reached publication in 1980, eleven years after Toole's suicide.  Published through the efforts of writer Walker Percy (who also contributed a foreword) and Toole's mother, the book became first a cult classic, then a mainstream success; it earned Toole a posthumous Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1981, and is now considered a canonical work of modern literature of the Southern United States.

He won Pulitzer Prizes for "Admiral of the Ocean Sea" (1942), a biography of Christopher Columbus, and "John Paul Jones: A Sailor's Biography" (1959).  In 1942, he was commissioned to write a history of United States naval operations in World War II, which was published in 15 volumes between 1947 and 1962.  Morison wrote the popular "Oxford History of the American People" (1965), and co-authored the classic textbook "The Growth of the American Republic" (1930) with Henry Steele Commager.
