About the author
By Elizabeth Strout
· Leading American literary writers.
She won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for Olive Kitteridge, My Name Is Lucy Barton was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, and Oh William was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. She has also been shortlisted for the Dublin Literary Prize, the Faulkner Prize and the British Women's Prize for Fiction.
She once said in an interview, "I wanted to be a writer so much that the thought of failing was almost unbearable for me." I never told anyone I wanted to be a writer when I grew up, because they looked at you with pity. I can't stand it."
She created the literary image of "Lucy Barton", and many readers bluntly said: Lucy Barton is another me in the world. This book is the first in a series.
