HTML:<b>WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE •&#160;The beloved first novel featuring Olive Kitteridge, from the #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>My Name is Lucy Barton</i> and the Oprah’s Book Club pick <i>Olive, Again</i></b><br /> <br /> <b>“Fiction lovers, remember this name: <i>Olive Kitteridge</i>. . . . You’ll never forget her.”<i>—USA Today</i></b><br /> <br /> <b>“Strout animates the ordinary with astonishing force.”<i>—The New Yorker</i></b><br /> <b>One of the <i>New York Times</i>’s 100 Best Books of the 21st Century</b><br /> <b>A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: <i>The Washington Post Book World, USA Today, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, People, Entertainment Weekly, The Christian Science Monitor, The Plain Dealer, The Atlantic, Rocky Mountain News, Library Journal</i></b><br /> &#160;<br /> At times stern, at other times patient, at times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby, Maine, and in the world at large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance; a former student who has lost the will to live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse.<br /> As the townspeople grapple with their problems, mild and dire, Olive is brought to a deeper understanding of herself and her life—sometimes painfully, but always with ruthless honesty. <i>Olive Kitteridge</i> offers profound insights into the human condition—its conflicts, its tragedies and joys, and the endurance it requires.<br /> &#160;<br /> <b>The inspiration for the Emmy Award–winning HBO miniseries starring Frances McDormand, Richard Jenkins, and Bill Murray</b>. 4.
