Tillie Olsen was an American author of fiction and nonfiction whose body of work was small but nonetheless made an impact. Olsen didn’t have a book-length work published until 1961 when Tell Me a Riddle appeared. A collection of four short stories, it opened with I Stand Here Ironing, a first-person narrative describing the frustration of motherhood, isolation, and poverty. The last piece in the collection, Tell Me a Riddle, is arguably her best-known work. It’s the story of a working-class couple that also poignantly explores the author’s favored themes of poverty and gender. The slender short story received much critical acclaim.
This collection of four stories, "I Stand Here Ironing," "Hey Sailor, what Ship?," "O Yes," and "Tell me a Riddle," had become an American classic.
