«Mi chiamo Lucy Barton» is the novel by Elizabeth Strout, published in 2016 by Mondadori in hardcover (160 pages, in Italian).
After an operation, Lucy Barton wakes up in a New York hospital and receives a surprise visit: her mother, whom she has not seen for years. Their conversations bring back memories of a poor, lonely childhood and reveal the tension and affection that bind them. With spare prose, Strout reflects on memory, identity, and the imprint of the past.
For those who appreciate intimate narrative about the relationships between mothers and daughters and the weight of memory.
Elizabeth Strout is an American novelist and author. She is widely known for her works in literary fiction and her descriptive characterization.
