Olive, Again

Olive, Again

Elizabeth Strout

The cranky retired math teacher from Elizabeth Strout’s Pulitzer Prize-winning 2008 novel makes a triumphant return in Olive, Again. In 13 interlinked stories, Olive Kitteridge pops in and out of the lives of her neighbors in the small town of Crosby, Maine, where she offers her advice—frequently unsolicited—on everything from parenthood to true love. But as the loveable grump ages, she comes to terms with her own legacy, in heartbreaking and reflective form.
