About Téa Obreht
Téa Obreht is an decorated Serbian-American novelist and short story writer. Her debut novel, The Tiger’s Wife, won the 2011 Orange Prize for Fiction, and was an international bestseller. Named by The New Yorker as one of the twenty best American fiction writers under forty, Obreht’s second novel, Inland, an epic set in the American West in 1893, was a finalist for the Dylan Thomas Prize and called “more convincingly Cormac McCarthy than McCarthy himself” by The Guardian. Her highly-anticipated third book, The Morningside, was published in March 2024.
