How I Feel About My First Husband, William

LZ Granderson: Can you read a passage from an author that influenced you as a writer? LZ: I'm going to read from the latest book by elizabeth stra am. And i'll just read it, and then i'll say why i wo know what i get from her writing. She says she could pretty much pull out any page of elizabeth strout's writing but these lucy barton books are "so understated and so powerful at the same time" So one of the things i love about that passage is this constant change and surprise.
