Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout

An interesting book, the Pulitzer prize winner for fiction in 2009. Interesting and fun to read. A series of related short stories that at least mention the character of Olive Kitteridge, a crusty New Englander that taught school for years. The stories involve people that knew her or were influenced by her, her husband, son, and so on. They are all finely crafted and suspenseful. Well worth a read.
