Hilma Wolitzer started writing as a child and had her first poem published at the tender age of nine. But it wasn’t until decades later, once she had had and raised her children, that her career really took off. Since then she has published 14 books and her daughter, Meg, has also become a successful novelist. Georgina Godwin speaks to Wolitzer about ‘Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket’, her new book of short stories, which spans her extensive literary career.
