Oprah Winfrey names Elizabeth Strout's 'Tell Me Everything' as her latest book club pick
Oprah Winfrey’s latest book club pick will be a story of familiar faces — in more ways than one
NEW YORK (AP) —
Oprah Winfrey 's latest book club pick will be a story of familiar faces — in more ways than one.
Winfrey announced Tuesday that she had chosen “Tell Me Everything,” the new novel by Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout. It's the second time Winfrey has cited a book by Strout, whose “Olive, Again” was a 2019 selection. And it's a return to popular literary territory, Strout's fictional Crosby, Maine, as the author continues the lives of such favorites as the elderly and unbowed Olive Kitteridge and the renowned scribe Lucy Barton.
“Elizabeth Strout welcomes us home again, back to the small town where we witness the interconnection of all the characters we’ve ever loved in her previous novels,” Winfrey said in a statement. “It’s a beautiful read reminding us that there is extraordinary love in ordinary actions.”
