Excitement: Elizabeth Strout's new novel — 'The Things We Never Say' — arrives tomorrow














Above, an email that arrived while I was sleeping.

I'm so stoked: I only came to the novels of Elizabeth Strout a few years ago.

Once I read one I was hooked: it was so good, sui generis.

I rationed out those that remained such that I only read one every six months or so until I'd completed them all.

Since then I've always pre-ordered each new novel.

She's 70 years old and I'm hoping she's got another 15 years of writing in her inimitable style ahead.

Fingers crossed.
