Synopsis
Elinor Lipman is the author of seven books: the novels The Pursuit of Alice Thrift , The Dearly Departed , The Ladies' Man , The Inn at Lake Devine , Isabel's Bed , The Way Men Act , Then She Found Me , and a collection of stories, Into Love and Out Again . She has been called "the diva of dialogue" ( People ) and "the last urbane romantic" ( Chicago Tribune ). Book Magazine said of The Pursuit of Alice Thrift , "Like Jane Austen, the past master of the genre, Lipman isn't only out for laughs. She serves up social satire, too, that's all the more trenchant for being deftly drawn." Her essays have appeared in the Boston Globe Magazine , Gourmet , Chicago Tribune , and The New York Times ’ Writers on Writing series. She received the New England Booksellers' 2001 fiction award for a body of work.
