Nicole Krauss

Nicole Krauss is the author of three novels: Man Walks into a Room, The History of Love, and Great House. Translated into more than thirty-five languages, her books have garnered many accolades, including the William Saroyan International Prize for Writing and France’s Prix du Meilleur Livre Ėtranger. They have been shortlisted for the National Book Award and the Orange, Médicis, and Femina prizes. Beautiful and powerful, Great House reveals deep human truths as it narrates the story of a desk across decades and continents. In its glowing review, the New York Times Book Review says of Krauss’ accomplishment, “It is a high-wire performance, only the wire has been replaced by an exposed nerve, and you hold your breath, and she does not fall.”
