Elizabeth Strout talks with WAMC's Joe Donahue about the return of Olive Kitteridge

ELIZABETH STROUT, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and #1 New York Times bestselling author, returns with her beloved, inimitable character, Olive Kitteridge! A book signing will take place after the presentation. When Elizabeth Strout won the Pulitzer Prize for Olive Kitteridge, the citation said the novel-in-stories packed “a cumulative emotional wallop, bound together by polished prose and by Olive, the title character, blunt, flawed and fascinating.” The book has sold nearly 1.5 million copies, and Frances McDormand played the titular character in an HBO adaptation that won 8 Emmy Awards.
