Y en el centro de esta historia, la voz indomable de Lucy Barton, su reflexión profunda y perenne sobre nuestra propia existencia: "Así es como funciona la vida. Todo lo que no sabemos hasta que ya es demasiado tarde".ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFinalist of the Booker Prize 2022NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout explores the mysteries of marriage and the secrets we keep, as a former couple reckons with where theyve come from—and what theyve left behind. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKSOF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review • The Washington Post • Time • NPR I would like to say a few things about my first husband, William. Lucy Barton is a writer, but her ex-husband, William, remains a hard man to read. William, she confesses, has always been a mystery to me. Another mystery is why the two have remained connected after all these years. They just are. So Lucy is both surprised and not surprised when William asks her to join him on a trip to investigate a recently uncovered family secret—one of those secrets that rearrange everything we think we know about the people closest to us. What happens next is nothing less than another example of what Hilary Mantel has called Elizabeth Strouts "perfect attunement to the human condition." There are fears and insecurities, simple joys and acts of tenderness, and revelations about affairs and other spouses, parents and their children. On every page of this exquisite novel we learn more about the quiet forces that hold us together—even after weve grown apart. At the heart of this story is the indomitable voice of Lucy Barton, who offers a profound, lasting reflection on the very nature of existence. "This is the way of life," Lucy says: "the many things we do not know until it is too late.""Elizabeth Strout is one of my very favorite writers, so the fact that Oh William! may well be my favorite of her books is a mathematical equation for joy. The depth, complexity, and love contained in these pages is a miraculous achievement."—Ann Patchett, author of The Dutch House Author Biography Elizabeth Strout (Portland, 1956) es una novelista norteamericana autora de Amy e Isabelle (1998, ganadora del Premio Art Seidenbaum de Los Angeles Times y del Premio Heartland del Chicago Tribune), Abide with Me (2006) y Los hermanos Burgess (2013), así como de las exitosas sagas protagonizadas por Olive Kitteridge -Olive Kitteridge (2008), ganadora de los premio Pulitzer, Llibreter, Bancarella y Mondello y que se convirtió en una aclamada serie de televisión, y Todo es posible (2017)- y por Lucy Barton -Me llamo Lucy Barton (2016), Luz de febrero (2019) y, ahora, Ay William, con la que Alfaguara inicia su publicación y uno de los mejores libros del año segÚn The Times-.
