Starred Review. Thirteen linked tales from Strout (Abide with Me, etc.) present a heart-wrenching, penetrating portrait of ordinary coastal Mainers living lives of quiet grief intermingled with flashes of human connection. The opening Pharmacy focuses on terse, dry junior high-school teacher Olive Kitteridge and her gregarious pharmacist husband, Henry, both of whom have survived the loss of a psychologically damaged parent, and both of whom suffer painful attractions to co-workers. Their son, Christopher, takes center stage in A Little Burst, which describes his wedding in humorous, somewhat disturbing detail, and in Security, where Olive, in her 70s, visits Christopher and his family in New York. Strout's fiction showcases her ability to reveal through familiar details—the mother-of-the-groom's wedding dress, a grandmother's disapproving observations of how her grandchildren are raised—the seeds of tragedy. Themes of suicide, depression, bad communication, aging and love, run through these stories, none more vivid or touching than Incoming Tide, where Olive chats with former student Kevin Coulson as they watch waitress Patty Howe by the seashore, all three struggling with their own misgivings about life. Like this story, the collection is easy to read and impossible to forget. Its literary craft and emotional power will surprise readers unfamiliar with Strout. (Apr.)
Elizabeth Strout is the author of several novels, including: Abide with Me, a national bestseller and BookSense pick, and Amy and Isabelle, which won the Los Angeles Times Art Seidenbaum Award for First Fiction and the Chicago Tribune Heartland Prize, and was a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award and the Orange Prize in England. In 2009 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her book Olive Kitteridge. Her short stories have been published in a number of magazines, including The New Yorker. She teaches at the Master of Fine Arts program at Queens University of Charlotte.

评分文笔细腻,气息也不错,就是觉得太琐碎,读一点就停了。
评分原著的二次曝光要归功于HBO迷你剧的成功。这部长篇平静地讲述着小镇平静生活中的暗流,自私的人、分裂的人、固执的人、孤独的人,它既没有歌颂母爱的伟大,也并非批判中产阶级的软弱,而是用个体命运拼接的美式浮世绘。Olive就是你不合时宜的妈妈,爱你但无法沟通。因为,她可能还没学会爱自己
评分这么温柔的故事,对白真实动人,看得几欲落泪。HBO的电视剧选取了小说里最动人的章节。
评分真好看。我要自己来翻译一下其中一章《冬日音乐会》(记账)
我对《奥丽芙·基特里奇》这本书的兴趣,最早来自于《三块广告牌》。那是一部质地坚硬的好电影,它让我记住了女主弗兰西斯·麦克多蒙德,电影里的她傲慢固执毒舌到刻薄,个性并不讨喜,但你却会被她不经意间露出的柔软破绽所打动。 我后来发现,她还拍了《奥丽芙·基特里奇》这...
评分我读《奥丽芙·基特里奇》的过程中,一直想着伊利莎白·斯特劳斯是不是汲取了美国南方文学的精髓,虽然关于这位作家的资料并不多,但得知她出生在美国最东北部的缅因州——也就是闻名全球的恐怖小说家斯蒂芬·金的故乡——并在那里度过童年时,大概也不无理由认为,为什么她...
评分 评分和之前读过的阿摩司·奥兹的《乡村生活图景》一样,伊丽莎白·斯特劳斯的这部作品始终是我所渴望并且难以抗拒的那一类小说:群像式的书写、精简疏淡的笔触、女性作家一贯独有的细腻视角……生活在小镇克劳斯比的人们就和现实生活中的你我一样,有着可感可触的伤感、疼痛,以及,...
评分伊丽莎白·斯特劳特是个陌生的作家。不只对我来说是这样,大多数中国读者或许都有同感。借助网络,不难发现她的第一本书在二〇〇年获得橘子奖和美国笔会福克纳奖提名,而她的第三本书《奥丽芙·基特里奇》夺得了二〇〇九年的普利策小说奖。我认为比奖项更能说明斯特劳特这...
