“Olive, Again is a tour de force. With extraordinary economy of prose – few writers can pack so much emotion, so much detail into a single paragraph – Strout immerses us in the lives of her characters, each so authentically drawn as to be deserving of an entire novel themselves. Compassionate, masterly and profound, this is a writer at the height of her powers”
Hannah Beckerman, “Olive, Again by Elizabeth Strout review – a moving tour de force,” The Guardian, November 3, 2019.
