Eliza Minot’s IN THE ORCHARD is one of the most beautiful novels I’ve read on the early, lush, deranged weeks after giving birth, so I was flattered to find ELEVEN HOURS—alongside works by Toni Morrison, Elena Ferrante, Jenny Offill, and Evan S. Connell!— on Minot’s list of the best fiction on the experience of motherhood for the website Shepherd.
