Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout
Wednesday, August 26 at 7 pm. and Friday, August 28 at 10 am.
“Thirteen linked tales present a heart-wrenching, penetrating portrait of ordinary coastal Mainers living lives of quiet grief intermingled with flashes of human connection…The collection is easy to read and impossible to forget. Its literary craft and emotional power will surprise readers unfamiliar with Strout.” Publisher’s Weekly
