Olive Kitteridge
Winner of the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction
In her latest novel, Olive Kitteridge, New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Strout has created one of the most original, complex, and deeply compelling characters to come along in a long time… revealed with slow relish in thirteen beautifully woven narratives.
Funny, wicked and remorseful, Mrs. Kitteridge is a compelling life force, a red-blooded original. When she’s not onstage, we look forward to her return. The book is a page-turner because of her.”
