Her most recent book, Greek to Me: Adventures of the Comma Queen (Norton, 2019), has been described as “a delicious intersection of personal essays, etymology, and travel writing†(Booklist). Norris has written for The New Yorker, the New York Times Book Review, Self, the Wall Street Journal, and the Times Literary Supplement. Originally from Cleveland, she lives in New York.
