In 2009, Elizabeth Strout won the Pulitzer Prize for her wonderful novel about a famously cantankerous and compelling character, Olive Kitteridge. Since then, in books like The Burgess Boys and My Name is Lucy Barton, Strout introduced readers to more of her engaging, vivacious characters. And with her latest book, published last month, Strout brings all of these characters together. Tell Me Everything is a quiet, masterful, beautiful peroration on love and loyalty that doesn't shy away from life's big questions. Strout joins us to talk about her compelling and complicated characters.Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.

New investment and enthusiasm are pouring into women's sports. In “The Price She Pays: Confronting the Hidden Mental Health Crisis in Women's Sports— from the Schoolyard to the Stadium,” lead authors Dr. Tiffany Brown and Katie Steele call for changes to the athletic hierarchy women compete under. As lead authors, along with co-author Erin Strout, they propose that the expanding popularity and financial clout of women's sports must be commensurate with an athlete-centred mental health approach The book is a candid guide to all stages of the sporting life, from introductory activities up to U.S. major-college athletics and the pros. It is unsparing of the traumas, but always optimistic, which meshes with 2024's breakouts such as new leagues that are gaining traction, and the WNBA rookie class featuring the likes of Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and Kingston, Ont., native Aaliyah Edwards. “The Price She Pays” is both timely, and telling about what fault lines need to be filled in. Brown and Steele are both licensed marriage and family therapists based in Oregon. Strout, who has written and freelanced for The Chronicle of Higher Education, Runner's World, Women Running, and ESPN-W, is based in Flagstaff, Arizona. “The Price She Pays” was released by Little, Brown, and Spark on June 18, 2024.
Elizabeth Strout er en av de fremste stemmene i amerikansk samtidslitteratur, og både leserne og kritikerne setter henne høyt. Hun begynte å skrive i ung alder, men det kom til å ta mange år før hun fikk noe utgitt. Den gangen var mantraet hennes «ikke gi deg.»I år er Strouts debutroman, Amy og Isabelle, endelig tilgjengelig på norsk (oversatt av Hilde Rød-Larsen). Det internasjonale gjennombruddet kom med romanen Olive Kitteridge, som hun ble tildelt Pulitzerprisen for i 2009, og som senere ble adaptert til en prisvinnende miniserie med samme navn. Siden da har hun skrevet fire bøker i serien om Lucy Barton: Mitt navn er Lucy Barton, Hva som helst er mulig, Lucy ved havet og Åh, William! – og gjennom disse har Strout vist seg som en både uredd og dypt empatisk forfatter.«Du kan ikke skrive litteratur og ta forbehold,» har Strout sagt. I likhet med hennes romankarakter Lucy Barton, vokste Strout opp på et lite tettsted i en streng familie. Da var bøker mirakler og tilfluktssteder, der hun forsto at hun ikke var alene.I dette personlige foredraget vil Strout snakke om sin vei fra tidlige skriverier til å bli en publisert forfatter, og underveis vil hun trekke fram noen av forfatterne og bøkene som har formet og påvirket henne underveis, deriblant Alice Munro, Eudora Welty og Ernest Hemingway. Strout har alltid observert menneskene rundt seg, og i foredraget vil hun snakke om hvor hun finner inspirasjon til romankarakterene sine, og hvordan hun klarte å gi slipp på forbeholdene.Foredraget er på engelsk. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Elizabeth Strout har etablert seg som en av den amerikanske samtidslitteraturens mest egenartede stemmer, elsket av lesere og kritikere. Det internasjonale gjennombruddet kom med romanen Olive Kitteridge, som Strout vant Pulitzerprisen for i 2009, og som også ble adaptert til en prisbelønt miniserie. Siden har hun skrevet fire bøker i Lucy Barton-serien, Jeg heter Lucy Barton, Hva som helst er mulig, Åh, William! og Lucy ved havet, alle oversatt av Hilde Rød-Larsen.Romanene om Lucy forteller om utsatthet, fattigdom, sorg og barndomstraumer – men også om verdien av håp, kunst og kjærlighet. Lucy vokser opp i en fattig og dysfunksjonell familie på landsbygda i Illinois, men klarer å bli forfatter mot alle odds. Romanene sirkler inn småbylivet og ulike epoker i Lucys liv, fra den langsomme oppvåkningen mot å bli forfatter, en som forteller, en som gir mening til verden med ord.Det er i det stillferdige, hverdagslige livet at de store dramaene utspiller seg i Strout sine romaner og noveller, med dybde, varme og kompleksitet skildres vanlige folks følelsesliv, samtidig som hun har et skarpt blikk for større samfunnsstrukturer og systemer som mennesket bevisst og ubevisst inngår i.Strout møter forfatter Kjersti Annesdatter Skomsvold til samtale om felleskap, familie og forandring.Samtalen foregår på engelsk. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Elizabeth Strout is one of the most distinct voices in contemporary American literature, and beloved by readers and critics alike. She started writing at an early age, but it would take her many years to finally get published. Back then, her mantra was “just keep going”.This year, Strout's debut novel, Amy and Isabelle, is finally available in Norwegian (translated by Hilde Rød-Larsen). Her international breakthrough came with the novel Olive Kitteridge, which earned her the 2009 Pulitzer Prize, and which was later adapted into the award-winning mini series of the same name. Since then, she has written four books in her Lucy Barton series; My Name Is Lucy Barton, Anything Is Possible, Lucy by the Sea and Oh, William! – which have earned Strout a reputation of an unafraid and deeply thoughtful writer.«You can't write fiction and be careful,» Strout has said. Growing up in a small, rural town with a strict family – similarly to her beloved character Lucy Barton – books were miracles and refuges – places in which she realized she was not alone.In this personal lecture, Strout will talk about her journey from when she first started to write, and to becoming a published author, highlighting some of the authors and books that have shaped and influenced her along the way, such as Alice Munro, Eudora Welty and Ernest Hemingway. A constant observer of those around her, she will talk about where she finds inspiration for her characters and how she learned to throw caution to the wind. Hosted on Acast.

Since then, she has written four books in her Lucy Barton series; My Name Is Lucy Barton, Anything Is Possible, Oh, William! and Lucy by the Sea.Her Lucy novels tell stories about exposedness, poverty, grief and childhood trauma, but also about the value of hope, art and love. Lucy grows up in a poor and dysfunctional family in the Illinois countryside and becomes a writer against all odds. Through her village upbringing and different periods in Lucy's life, the novels depicts her slow awakening as a writer, someone who tells stories, who gives the world meaning through language.In Strout's novels and short stories, the great drama unfolds within unassuming everyday life. The emotional lives of ordinary people are portrayed with depth, warmth and complexity, while she simultaneously shows a keen eye for the larger societal structures and systems of which we, consciously or unconsciously, are part.At the House of Literature, Strout is joined by writer Kjersti Annesdatter Skomsvold for a conversation about family, community and change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week we are putting a bow on our conversation about demonstrating and articulating value. You may be doing all the right things, but if you aren't reporting it properly you might be doing yourself a disservice. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 136 of the Resilient Journey podcast, presented by the Resilience Think Tank. This week we are joined by friend of the podcast Steve Strout, a long-time C Suite Executive and Board Member. Steve gives us the inside scoop on what Boards and executives are looking for. Simply put – he tells us how to present your program. Steve tells Mark we need to start with “Why” and learn how to tell an effective story – but he adds, be careful what you say. And, there's a crucial takeaway…a “nugget” that you won't want to miss that will make sure your reporting always resonates with the board. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey! We sure do appreciate it! Learn more about the Resilience Think Tank here. Want to learn more about Mark? Click here or on LinkedIn or Twitter. Special thanks to Bensound for the music.

Host Meg Wolitzer talks with author Elizabeth Strout about her story “Home” and the fictional family Strout has created.
HostMeg Wolitzer shares three stories about people who put things out of sight—and try to put them out of mind. In Lisa Ko's “Nightlife,” read by Vanessa Kai, a pair of friends quietly sidestep feelings that might complicate their relationship. A teacher tries to help a parent see who her child really is in “The Hole” by Patrick Cottrell, performed by Becca Blackwell. And Elizabeth Strout brings us a beautiful and devastating story of a woman grappling with whether to put her mother into institutional care in “Home,” performed by Mia Dillon. Strout talks with Wolitzer after the reading. All three works were commissioned for the Selected Shorts' anthology, Small Odysseys.

Maine, with its picturesque landscapes and charming small towns, has been a source of inspiration for numerous authors throughout history. From Pulitzer Prize-winning novels to chilling horror stories, the state of Maine has served as a rich backdrop for literary exploration. In this blog post, we will delve into five captivating books that take place in Maine, each offering a unique perspective on the state and its people. "Empire Falls" by Richard Russo:Set in the fictional town of Empire Falls, this Pulitzer Prize-winning novel introduces readers to Miles Roby, the manager of a local diner. Through Roby's eyes, we witness the intricacies of small-town life, the complexities of family relationships, and the struggles of the working class. Richard Russo skillfully portrays the charm and idiosyncrasies of Maine's inhabitants while delving into themes of identity, love, and redemption. "The Country of the Pointed Firs" by Sarah Orne Jewett:Regarded as a masterpiece of regional literature, this classic novella is set in a small coastal town in Maine. The story revolves around a woman who spends her summer in the town, immersing herself in its culture and forming connections with the locals. Sarah Orne Jewett's evocative prose captures the essence of Maine's coastal beauty and paints a vivid portrait of the community that inhabits it. "Pet Sematary" by Stephen King:No exploration of Maine literature would be complete without mentioning the master of horror himself, Stephen King. "Pet Sematary" takes readers to a small town in Maine, where a doctor and his family move to start a new life. They soon stumble upon a pet cemetery with a dark secret, leading to a chilling chain of events. Stephen King's ability to blend supernatural elements with human emotions creates a captivating and spine-tingling tale that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. "Olive Kitteridge" by Elizabeth Strout:Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, "Olive Kitteridge" is a collection of interconnected stories set in the fictional town of Crosby, Maine. Elizabeth Strout weaves together the lives of various characters, with Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, serving as a central figure. Through these narratives, Strout explores themes of love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships. The book offers a poignant and intimate portrait of small-town life in Maine, highlighting the joys and sorrows that shape its inhabitants. "The Cider House Rules" by John Irving:This thought-provoking novel is set in rural Maine and follows the life of Homer Wells, an orphan who grows up in an orphanage run by Dr. Wilbur Larch. As Homer grapples with his own identity and morality, the book delves into sensitive topics such as abortion and the complexities of family dynamics. John Irving's vivid descriptions of the Maine countryside serve as a backdrop for a compelling exploration of societal norms, personal choices, and the search for one's place in the world. These five books offer a diverse range of narratives set in the enchanting state of Maine. From introspective character studies to haunting tales of horror, each story captures a unique facet of Maine's landscapes, communities, and people. Whether you're seeking a heartwarming tale or a chilling read, these books will transport you to the captivating world of Maine and leave a lasting impression.

Ben Strout thought "there has to be a better way." As a home remodeling contractor, the frantic rush between roof removal and building the new one often leads to hurried work and - worse - rain ruining the house interior. He's designed a patent-pending system that allows the new roof to go up first, then frame the interior of the addition, and the final step it to remove the old roof and add stairs from underneath. It's a game changer. (This episode is a monthly collaboration with Business Alabama Magazine.)

We are delighted today to welcome back to Midday the writer Elizabeth Strout. She is the best-selling author of nine novels and many short stories. In 2009, she won the Pulitzer Prize for a terrific book, Olive Kitteridge. A film adaption of that book on HBO starred Frances McDormand and won eight Emmy Awards. Elizabeth Strout has revisited two of her iconic characters in subsequent books. We met Olive Kitteridge once more in Olive Again, and Olive makes an appearance in Elizabeth Strout's latest novel, too. In this new book, Strout keeps us current with another one of her magnificent characters, Lucy Barton. It's the fourth novel in which Lucy figures prominently. Like her book, Oh William! from last year, Strout centers this one on Lucy's friendship with her first husband, a successful scientist named William Gerhardt. The setting is a small town in Maine, where Lucy and William have sequestered themselves at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. Lucy is a rich, wonderful character, and Elizabeth Strout is a wonderful writer who brings us into Lucy's loving and insightful mind with grace and compassion. The new novel is out today. It's called Lucy by the Sea. Elizabeth Strout joins us on Zoom from New York City.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Host Meg Wolitzer shares three stories about people who put things out of sight—and try to put them out of mind. In Lisa Ko's “Nightlife,” read by Vanessa Kai, a pair of friends quietly sidestep feelings that might complicate their relationship. A teacher tries to help a parent see who her child really is in “The Hole” by Patrick Cottrell, performed by Becca Blackwell. And Elizabeth Strout brings us a beautiful and devastating story of a woman grappling with whether to put her mother into institutional care in “Home,” performed by Mia Dillon. Strout talks with Wolitzer after the reading. All three works were commissioned for the Selected Shorts' anthology, Small Odysseys.
