Whether with a teenager coming to terms with the loss of her father, a young woman about to give birth during a hilariously inopportune moment, a nurse who confesses a secret high school crush, or a lawyer who struggles with an inheritance she does not want to accept, the unforgettable Olive will continue to startle us, to move us, and to inspire us--in Strout's words--\"to bear the burden of the mystery with as much grace as we can.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eOlive, Again\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Olive is a brilliant creation not only because of her eternal cantankerousness but because she's as brutally candid with herself about her shortcomings as she is with others. Her honesty makes people strangely willing to confide in her, and the raw power of Ms. Strout's writing comes from these unvarnished exchanges, in which characters reveal themselves in all of their sadness and badness and confusion. . . . The great, terrible mess of living is spilled out across the pages of this moving book. Ms. Strout may not have any answers for it, but she isn't afraid of it either.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElizabeth Strout \u003c\/b\u003eis the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of \u003ci\u003eOlive Kitteridge, \u003c\/i\u003e winner of the Pulitzer Prize; \u003ci\u003eOlive, Again, \u003c\/i\u003e an Oprah's Book Club pick; \u003ci\u003eAnything Is Possible, \u003c\/i\u003ewinner of the Story Prize; \u003ci\u003eMy Name is Lucy Barton\u003c\/i\u003e, longlisted for the Man Booker Prize; \u003ci\u003eThe Burgess Boys, \u003c\/i\u003enamed one of the best books of the year by \u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post \u003c\/i\u003eand NPR; \u003ci\u003eAbide with Me, \u003c\/i\u003e a national bestseller; and \u003ci\u003eAmy and Isabelle, \u003c\/i\u003e winner of the \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e Art Seidenbaum Award for First Fiction and the \u003ci\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e Heartland Prize.
