Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • From Pulitzer Prize–winning author Elizabeth Strout comes a “stunner” (People) of a novel about new friendships, old loves, and the very human desire to leave a mark on the world. “Tell Me Everything hits like a bucolic fable. . . . A novel of moods, how they govern our personal lives and public spaces, reflected in Strout’s shimmering technique.”—The Washington Post SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN’S PRIZE FOR FICTION • A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Time, NPR, Vogue, Parade With her remarkable insight into the human condition and silences that contain multitudes, Elizabeth Strout returns to the town of Crosby, Maine, and to her beloved cast of characters—Lucy Barton, Olive Kitteridge, Bob Burgess, and more—as they deal with a shocking crime in their midst, fall in love and yet choose to be apart, and grapple with the question, as Lucy Barton puts it, “What does anyone’s life mean?” It’s autumn in Maine, and the town lawyer Bob Burgess has become enmeshed in an unfolding murder investigation, defending a lonely, isolated man accused of killing his mother. He has also fallen into a deep and abiding friendship with the acclaimed writer Lucy Barton, who lives down the road in a house by the sea with her ex-husband, William. Together, Lucy and Bob go on walks and talk about their lives, their fears and regrets, and what might have been. Lucy, meanwhile, is finally introduced to the iconic Olive Kitteridge, now living in a retirement community on the edge of town. They spend afternoons together in Olive’s apartment, telling each other stories. Stories about people they have known—“unrecorded lives,” Olive calls them—reanimating them, and, in the process, imbuing their lives with meaning. Brimming with empathy and pathos, Tell Me Everything is Elizabeth Strout operating at the height of her powers, illuminating the ways in which our relationships keep us afloat. As Lucy says, “Love comes in so many different forms, but it is always love.” Read more

  • Elizabeth Strout never disappoints
Elizabeth Strout never disappoints, I hope she continues to write for many more years. Just love her writing - this book as per Olive and Olive Again was so beautiful and subtle and tugged so very much at my heartstrings. A gem of a book that made me laugh out loud and also cry. An absolute treat!

  • Deep Characters with Deep Connections
I love Olive, always, so it’s a joy that she is here. This book revisits other familiar characters as well as introducing new ones. They are all so real. Strout has a gift for character depth and I truly cared about everyone in this book. Storytelling between Lucy and Olive, Lucy’s and Bob’s connection, and Matt’s drama and growth are glowing threads connected to Bob being Bob every day. Another beautiful read from Elizabeth Strout. ... show more

  • Tell Me More
Tell Me Everything by Elizabeth Strout brings together the characters she’s introduced readers to in her previous novels. In this volume, Bob Burgess is the center who draws the others into his orbit, but each has untold stories of their own to relate. Individually, these “unrecorded lives” have often been challenging, even painful, yet they are not extraordinary within the panoply of human experience. Likewise, the events and emotions they share when their lives are entangled in Strout’s latest book are unexceptionable. Except that in this author’s capable hands, each story acquires the depth, radiance, or tragedy that elevates it to a level worth telling and remembering. As a novelist myself (see my Amazon author page https://www.amazon.com/author/asewovenwords), I admire Strout’s gentle but firm control as she navigates the bumpy terrain her characters traverse. Their small worlds are big enough to accommodate us all. I didn’t want the book to end, and impatiently await Strout’s next book so she can tell me more. ... show more

  • The Olive Moments Were Good
Olive Kitteridge and Olive Again are two of my favorite contemporary novels of all time, so I was really looking forward to this book. The Olive moments didn't disappoint - she's just as salty and inwardly caring as always. The character is Lucy is well-drawn as well - she's dreamy and full of love of all people and the world, yet prickly when poked. I also liked the character of Bob, whose thoughts on his bad haircut reminded me of the sweetly humorous insightful character studies of Anne Tyler. However, the story, unlike the stories within the story, dragged along for some reason. It was difficult to care about the woman who got murdered or the back story of her family, for some reason. I know that the story needed some sort of plot, but I'm not sure a murder mystery was a good fit to the character development within the story. I kept skipping ahead to the places where Olive and Lucy meet up and had hoped that there was more here. I also wished to know more about Margaret and Bob's relationship and Margaret herself, how she became a pastor, for example. This book will still find its place on my shelf with the Olive books, but it was not as satisfying of a read by a long shot. ... show more

  • Good book
The book was an old library copy but in excellent condition & arrived quickly. The writing however, was rather pedantic. It was a good, but not compelling read. (Are we rating the seller or the author? I give the seller 5 stars but the book itself only 3 or 4.)

  • You Will Learn Everything!
"Tell Me Everything" by Elizabeth Strout continues the interconnected stories of characters from her other novels. You can quickly jump into this book, even if you're new to Strout's work. Olive Kitteridge, literature's favorite misanthrope, plays a supporting role. If you're unfamiliar with the entire series, be prepared to revisit cast lists and names to understand each character's role in the Amgash series fully. Though the protagonists are a few individuals, you'll immerse yourself in many names and stories. You'll encounter familiar characters like Bob Burgess, Lucy Barton, and Olive Kitteridge, each with a rich and compelling narrative. The story centers around a man accused of murder who seeks well-known Bob's legal counsel when his invalid mother turns up dead. Bob suffers a personal loss while defending his client, so the fragility of his life plays a significant role. His professional interviews show multiple people affected by death very differently. Like most literary lawyers, he is battling his internal demons and throwing himself into his work to avoid dwelling on them. His dysfunctional marriage does not help matters much, either. The scenes between Bob and Lucy (married to other people) grow on you because the author dares to make intimacy about something other than a physical relationship or casual sex. Olive's parts require a little background knowledge since you must deduce why she is such an influential figure in her lonely town. I highly recommend Strout's previous work for that. The ending wraps up in a way that seems like the end of a significant party (and it is) in which everyone walks away with a better sense of who they are, even if the individual stories do not all have closure. You may enjoy other authors more, but few, if any, have Strout's character development ability and inherent storytelling. ... show more

  • Olive Again and Again….
Of all the books of the Elizabeth Strout, that I’ve read this book was the best so far. STrout’s character development in this book and help explain so much of the story itself. Most of the characters in this novel I’d met before, but this time the connections were described so the book was easy to understand. Olive Kitteridge is aging which the author let the reader know but this part of life’s journey was written so the reader knew the process was taking place but in a positive way and Olive was still Olive! Even Lucy came across as a person with compassion for others in the community. I feel these are examples of what I liked so much about the story: characters were developed and connected so they were seen as people we all know! ... show more
