Congrats to Elizabeth Strout for receiving the 2023 Eudora Welty Prize! Last year's recipient, Ann Patchett, introduced Elizabeth Strout and presented her with the award before Strout gave her lecture.
Presented by Eudora Welty Foundation and Folger Shakespeare Library.

In awe of Elizabeth Strout after hearing about how she became a writer tonight at a Folger Shakespeare Library event. What struck me most was her perseverance (so many rejections!) and her sense of humor. May we, like she did, keep writing and believing in ourselves. #writerslife
Ann Patchett's (John Hien Nguyen) presenting of the Eudora Welty prize to Elizabeth Strout tonight was masterful. As Fred Astaire makes you want to get up and dance, so Strout does with writing: her ease and lightness inspire us to join in the fun. (Thank you @folgerlibrary for this evening)
