    Acclaimed from the very beginning, Strout won The Los Angeles Times Art Seidenbaum Award for First Fiction with Amy and Isabelle, and the Pulitzer for her third novel, Olive Kitteridge. With her fifth novel Strout has created a dynamic, engaging storyteller in the eponymous Lucy, a successful writer and mother of two-but, to her own mother, still just a defiant child. As Lucy recovers from unexpectedly complicated surgery, her estranged mother visits, and together the two relive the past and struggle to repair a relationship that means a lot to both of them.
    Strout is in conversation with WAMU's Tayla Burney.

    This conversation would have been so much more interesting if Strout had actually gotten the chance to say something & the interviewer hadn't talked for ⅔ of the time.

      Half is a long way from an accurate representation of what occured here. Many writers, myself included, like facilitation. It takes some pressure off. You've seen an incredible session with one of the greatest living novelists, for free,and you find fault with it? 🤦‍♀️

      I think you can see by the way Strout herself clearly resonated with the interviewer and thanked her for her excellent prompts that this was not the case (see here 20:20) ; I found the interviewer very perceptive and on the same wavelength as Strout. So sad when people completely miss the point of something
