ELLIOTT BAY BOOK GROUP

06/01/2010 6:30 pm
Each month, the Elliott Bay Book Club reads and discusses the best in contemporary fiction with the occasional classic thrown in for good measure. With Elizabeth Costello, Nobel Prize winner, J.M. Coetzee has crafted an unusual and deeply affecting tale told through an ingenious series of formal addresses. Vividly imagined and masterfully wrought, Elizabeth Costello is, on the surface, the story of a woman's life as mother, sister, lover, and writer. Yet it is also a profound and haunting meditation on the nature of storytelling that only a writer of Coetzee's caliber could accomplish. John Banville in The Nation said, "Elizabeth Costello resonates in the mind long after it has been put aside."
