SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE 2022

THE TOP 10 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author, who has also been awarded the Booker, returns to her beloved heroine Lucy Barton in a luminous novel about love, loss, and family secrets that can emerge and confuse us at any point in life.

Lucy Barton is a successful writer living in New York, navigating the second half of her life as a recent widow and mother of two adult daughters. An unexpected encounter leads her to reconnect with William, her first husband - and long-term, ever-changing friend and confidant.

Recalling their college years, the birth of their daughters, the painful dissolution of their marriage, and the lives they built with other people, Strout weaves a portrait, stunning in its delicacy, of a tender, complex, decades-long relationship.

"Oh William!" captures the joy and heartbreak of watching children grow up and create families of their own, the revelation of family secrets late in life that change everything we think we know about those closest to us, and the way people live and love, against all odds.

At the heart of this story is the unforgettable, indomitable voice of Lucy Barton, once again offering a profound, lasting reflection on the mystery of existence. "This is the way of life," says Lucy. "The many things we don't know until it's too late."

"An extraordinarily gifted storyteller and a craftswoman in a category all her own" - Hilary Mantel

"An amazing writer" - Zadie Smith

"Gets better with every book" - Maggie O'Farrell

"One of America's finest writers" - Sunday Times

"This is carefully observed writing, filled with psychological insight." Lucy Barton is one of literature's immortal characters - fragile, damaged, unraveling, vulnerable, and most importantly, ordinary - like all of us" - Booker Prize judges
