Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine (2017)

Book
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine
8.4/10on Open LibraryPublished
Eleanor's precise routines and blunt observations initially create a very funny distance from everyone around her. As friendship interrupts that arrangement, the same voice begins to reveal the cost of isolation. Honeyman makes everyday practical kindness matter, including helping a man who has fallen in the street. Significant trauma, alcohol misuse and suicidal distress sit behind the deadpan surface. Choose it for the change in how a person is understood, with patience for what the narrator finds difficult to say.
