KAREN JOY FOWLER
Karen Joy Fowler is the author of six novels and three short story collections. The Jane Austen Book Club spent thirteen weeks on the New York Times
bestsellers list and was a New York Times Notable Book. Fowler’s previous novel, Sister Noon, was a finalist for the 2001 PEN/Faulkner Award for fiction. Her debut novel, Sarah Canary, was a New York Times Notable Book, as was her second novel, The Sweetheart Season. Fowler’s latest novel, We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves, won the Pen/Faulkner Award for fiction and was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize.
In We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves, Fowler introduces a middle-class American family, ordinary in every way but one. This is a story of loving but fallible people whose well-intentioned actions lead to heartbreaking consequences.
Fowler and her husband, who have two grown chil-dren and five grandchildren, live in Santa Cruz, CA.
