"I never started my career thinking I would create a world of people. But they just never went away." —Elizabeth Strout on Lucy Barton and her world of characters across many novels; the latest in the Lucy series is 'Lucy by the Sea.' Thank you Elizabeth Strout and @dawn.tripp for a marvelous conversation at the Brattle Theatre tonight! We have signed copies of tonight's featured book in the bookstore now. #AuthorsAtHBS #ElizabethStrout #LucyByTheSea
