Barbed, sharp, resistant to change, ruthlessly honest and empathetic, Olivia Kitteridge is the epitome of vitality. The new collection of stories about Olivia Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout (the prize was received just "Olivia Kitteridge") - a veritable encyclopedia of feelings, joys and troubles of modern man.
Olivia tries to understand not only herself, her actions, her feelings, but also everything that happens around her, the lives of people that get in her way. Whether it's a teenage girl who is experiencing the loss of her father and realizing her sexuality; or a young woman who is about to give birth in the middle of a holiday; or a young man who hasn't spoken to his wife in thirty years and suddenly learns incredible things about his daughter; or his own son who doesn't understand her. Olivia, with her incredible sense of humor, makes you laugh, scares you, touches you, inspires you. There are not many characters so vivid and so significant in modern world literature.
