“Writers should be entitled to write from any perspective, race, gender, or background they choose.”
Lionel Shriver is an award winning author and provocative voice in contemporary literature, unafraid to tackle contentious subjects with unflinching honesty. Her acclaimed novel, We Need to Talk About Kevin, delves into the complexities of motherhood and moral responsibility, which earned her the Orange Prize for Fiction in 2005.
Shriver's fearless exploration of societal norms and the individual psyche makes her one of the most compelling figures in modern literature.
