Meet Eleanor Oliphant: She struggles with appropriate social skills and tends to say exactly what she’s thinking. Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions, where weekends are punctuated by frozen pizza, vodka, and phone chats with Mummy.
But everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond, the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office. When she and Raymond together save Sammy, an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk, the three become the kinds of friends who rescue one another from the lives of isolation they have each been living. And it is Raymond’s big heart that will ultimately help Eleanor find the way to repair her own profoundly damaged one.
Smart, warm, uplifting, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine is the story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes. . .
The only way to survive is to open your heart.
Gail Honeyman is a graduate of the universities of Glasgow and Oxford. Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine was short-listed for the Lucy Cavendish Fiction Prize as a work in progress and is Honeyman’s debut novel. She lives in Glasgow, Scotland.
有聲書愛爾蘭口音很可愛,故事還不錯,有喜歡的地方,但沒有觸動我
评分大熱的這一本,卻根本讀不下去,太抵觸女主這種性格瞭。年紀大瞭喪失聖母耐心,生活中遇到這種情商低、為人苛刻、自私淡漠的人,也是實在提不起興趣去瞭解其內心世界和往日創傷。看書評說好多人也是要停下來緩一緩纔能接著讀,我還是敬謝不敏瞭…
评分Eleanor的孤獨與痛苦如此relatable,以至於讀的時候常常迴想起小時候被媽媽打罵的場景,有時氣得發抖,有時又淚如雨下。很欣慰地看到她慢慢走齣陰影,也有瞭關心自己的朋友,沒有人的童年是完美的吧!成年的我們能做的,就是一點點正視、接納自己
评分5/10. "LOL could go and take a running jump. I wasn't made for illiteracy./The moment hung in time like a drop of honey from a spoon, heavy, golden./Obscenity is the distinguishing hallmark of a sadly limited vocabulary."/說連續第二天餐廳裡像美劇裡的熟客; newly laid egg; 如果可以的話扔進動物園; 沉默間歇像questions crystallising; 和Ove很像 可惜那部電影就沒能喜歡 如果之前知道的話大概不會讀 但隻看到說韆萬不要被劇透 非我杯茶
评分I do exist, don’t I? It often feels as if I’m not here, that I’m a figment of my own imagination.
