A review by hankhank
Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout

reflective medium-paced
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
This is the story of a woman's life told in lots of different mini stories, each from a different person's perspective. The mini stories are not all equally as strong as each other, but the parts told from Olive's perspective are blindingly good.
