NOVELA ESTADOUNIDENSEClasificación: 813 Resumen: Olive Kitteridge is a retired teacher living in a small place in Maine, New England. Sometimes hard, sometimes patient, sometimes lucid, sometimes self-blind, Olive Kitteridge deplores the transformations that have shaken the small town of Crosby and the catastrophic drift that is taking the whole world, but does not always realize the less noticeable changes Which affect the people closest to us: the despair of an ex-student who has lost the will to live; The loneliness of his own son, who feels bullied by Olive's irrational whims; And the presence of her husband, Henry, who lives his conjugal fidelity as a cursed blessing. While the local people are facing their problems, whether they are slight or serious, Olive Kitteridge is becoming aware of herself and the people around her, often painfully, but always with an intimate honesty. Olive Kitteridge is a magnificent altarpiece of lives. Elizabeth Strout describes with great psychological precision the excesses of the human condition.
