As a fiction lover, you will never forget the name...Olive Kitteridge. She's a force to be reckoned with in the small town of Crosby, Maine. She is a stern, but funny, retired school teacher and her story is told in many short stories about the local townspeople. As the jacket says, Olive Kitteridge offers profound insights into the human condition--its conflicts, its tragedies and joys, and the endurance it requires. A thoroughly enjoyable book!
