Olive Kitteridge

I've very much enjoyed reading this unusual book Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout. The main character is, of course, Olive and the book is a series of short stories. Olive features in each one either as a minor character or in a major way. Each story is told, chronologically and connected, of different people who live in her small town. We then build up a picture of Olive's character. There are words on the cover of the book "What will you make of her?" I found my perception of Olive changed as the book continued. Brilliant writing. 5/5
