I believe the correct answer is C) he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1962, and he was called "a giant of American letters".

A) isn't correct because he graduated one faculty and then went to another, which he left without a degree

B) he doesn't have a bust in Washington

D) although this novel was successful, it didn't outsell other novels of the time
