The Nickel Boys is a novel by Colson Whitehead. It was published in July 2019 by Doubleday. The novel tells the story of two African-American boys who are sent to a juvenile reform school in Florida during the 1960s. The book is based on the true story of the Arthur G. Dozier School for Boys, which was closed in 2011 after years of abuse and neglect. The Nickel Boys was a finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction and won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.
