Book Review: Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket

Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket
by Hilma Wolitzer
Review by Bel

A brilliant collection of short stories that reads like a novel. It will make you laugh and cry because it’s zany, delightful, heartfelt and full of truth. One of my favourites that I return to. Wolitzer is an absolute genius, an American master who explores marriage and motherhood from the 1960s through to today. Perfect for lovers of Elizabeth Strout’s Olive Kitteridge, Alice Munro and Nora Ephron’s Heartburn.
