Some women I know were talking about Elizabeth Strout the other day. I downloaded one of her books on kindle, and I think I have serious allergy to middle brow earnest realist fiction. To me, it's not well written at all. Some of it is just flat, but then there will be a purple patch or a misconceived simile. This is a wildly successful writer who has shows and movies made of her work.
