““Tell Me Everything” offers readers an abundance of the searing and plain-spoken insights for which Strout is beloved.... Strout looks, she sees. And when we read her books — oh! — so do we.”
Alexis Schaitkin, “Elizabeth Strout Gets the Gang Back Together for a Murder Mystery,” New York Times, Sept 9, 2024.
“I’ve always been fascinated with this sense that every single person walking down the street has a whole story. …And nobody ever really knows it, because we only tell parts of our story to different people, and oh, I just want to know it so much! I always have, so I make it up.”
Hephzibah Anderson, “Books interview: Elizabeth Strout: ‘All ordinary people are extraordinary,’” The Guardian, Sept 7, 2024.
“‘Tell Me Everything’ … brings together Strout’s most indelible characters in a rich tapestry, intricately wrought yet effortlessly realized, both suspenseful and meditative.”
Priscilla Gilman, “In ‘Tell Me Everything,’ Elizabeth Strout finds the big hearts behind some of New England’s most tight-lipped townspeople,” Boston Globe, Sept 4, 2024.
“Strout delivers that most terrible and yet important of literary clichés: a book with heart.… Like all the best literary landscapes, [the town of] Crosby is everywhere, its people are all of us and their stories matter. ”
Alice Fishburn, “Tell Me Everything by Elizabeth Strout — a small-town story with a big heart,” The Financial Times, Sept 4, 2024.
