Back Quote by Elizabeth Strout

“I'm drawn to New England because that's where my roots are, and I miss it. I come from many generations of New Englanders, and so, in my writing, I've been drawn back there to the landscape and the light and the type of personality that's revealed.” quote by Elizabeth Strout — Download Open image
