Reseñas editoriales
Editors Select, April 2017 - I've never read anything by Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout, not Olive Kitteridge, not My Name Is Lucy Barton, nothing. This is a mistake I plan to soon rectify after listening to Anything Is Possible. Strout delivers a distinct and down-to-earth vision of American life with a patchwork of exactingly crafted characters. Each is so normal and somewhat unassuming but also tortured and robust. She seems to know exactly how to pinpoint the pain that drives people, and each of the stories that make up this novel comes to a carefully balanced yet captivating crescendo. But what I love most about this book is Strout's measured sense of voice. Not only does it complement her understated characters, and not only is it the ideal vehicle for narrator Kimberly Farr, but it is perfectly suited to the quick turns of emotion and introspection that make these stories so brilliantly moving and memorable. Michael, Audible Editor
Resumen del Editor
An unforgettable cast of small-town characters copes with love and loss in this new work of fiction by number one best-selling author and Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout.
Recalling Olive Kitteridge in its richness, structure, and complexity, Anything Is Possible explores the whole range of human emotion through the intimate dramas of people struggling to understand themselves and others.
Here are two sisters: One trades self-respect for a wealthy husband while the other finds in the pages of a book a kindred spirit who changes her life. The janitor at the local school has his faith tested in an encounter with an isolated man he has come to help; a grown daughter longs for mother love even as she comes to accept her mother's happiness in a foreign country; and the adult Lucy Barton (the heroine of My Name Is Lucy Barton, the author's celebrated New York Times best seller) returns to visit her siblings after 17 years of absence.
Reverberating with the deep bonds of family and the hope that comes with reconciliation, Anything Is Possible again underscores Elizabeth Strout's place as one of America's most respected and cherished authors.

As a panicked world goes into lockdown, Lucy Barton is uprooted from her life in Manhattan and bundled away to a small town in Maine by her ex-husband and on-again, off-again friend, William. For the next several months, it’s just Lucy, William, and their complex past together in a little house nestled against the moody, swirling sea. Rich with empathy and emotion, Lucy by the Sea vividly captures the fear and struggles that come with isolation, as well as the hope, peace, and possibilities that those long, quiet days can inspire.

At times stern, at other times patient, at times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby, Maine, and in the world at large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance; a former student who has lost the will to live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse.

Historia
Told in three distinct and uniquely compelling sections, Asymmetry explores the imbalances that spark and sustain many of our most dramatic human relations: inequities in age, power, talent, wealth, fame, geography, and justice. The first section, "Folly", tells the story of Alice, a young American editor, and her relationship with the famous and much older writer Ezra Blazer. A tender and exquisite account of an unexpected romance that takes place in New York during the early years of the Iraq War.

In these eight masterful stories, Lorrie Moore, in a perfect blend of craft and bewitched spirit, explores the passage of time and summons up its inevitable sorrows and hilarious pitfalls to reveal her own exquisite, singular wisdom...Gimlet-eyed social observation, the public and private absurdities of American life, dramatic irony, and enduring half-cracked love wend their way through each of these narratives in a heartrending mash-up of the tragic and the laugh-out-loud - the hallmark of Lorrie Moore - land.

From New York Times best-selling author Erik Larson comes his first venture into fiction, an otherworldly tale of intrigue and the impossible that marshals his trademark approach to nonfiction to create something new: a ghost story thoroughly grounded in history. Pioneering psychologist William James leads an expedition to a remote isle in search of answers after a family inexplicably vanishes. Was the cause rooted in the physical world...or were there forces more paranormal and sinister at work?

Fusing Keatsian mists and mellow fruitfulness with the vitality, the immediacy, and the color hit of Pop Art, Autumn is a witty excavation of the present by the past. The novel is a stripped-branches take on popular culture and a meditation, in a world growing ever more bordered and exclusive, on what richness and worth are, what harvest means.

Elizabeth Stroud is wonderful!
I loved Olive Kitteridge; I loved My Name is Lucy Barton; and I loved this book. The characters are so well developed, yet there isn't an extra word. I especially enjoy the interrelatedness of the individual stories.

This book is the reason to read Lucy Barton
I loved my first book by Elizabeth Strout; Olive Kitteredge has a permanent place in my host of imaginary companions, who follow me around a commenting on my life. But Lucy Barton, my second read, was disappointing.
And then, I learned what Lucy Barton was preparing me for. The women, and some sensitive men, of Amgash, Illinois come to life in these loosely woven stories. They are flawed, doubting, hoping, and often (but not always) redeemed. Strout believes in the ripple effects of a benevolent gaze, but she is not shallow or trite in demonstrating this.
This is a quiet book for a rainy afternoon or for recovering from something that has exhausted the spirit. It is suitable for reading after the midterm election is over--whether your side won or lost, Strout's stories of small town life will remind you of how, and why, to repair the fragile threads that make a family or community. It's not an adventure story or a who-dunnit. It's not a Pollyanna story of good people doing good deeds and saving the world. But it is believable, and there is grace in these people.
Strout captures the rural Illinois that I know--the sweltering heat of summer, the knife-edge fragility of a family farm, the easy cruelty of tiny town gossip, the equally easy generosity of neighbors, the stands of oak, the endless miles of genetically-engineered corn and soybeans, the resistance to change and the inevitable inroads that it makes in our lives, anyway. There are shafts of light amidst the dark green overgrowth that lines footpaths in town that has outlasted its economic reason to exist. My heart wants to go there, too, to rest only slightly uneasy while fireflies dance quietly in the grass.

Best Read of Winter/Spring 2017
This is the story about a town you won't remember and it's people who you can't forget. Strout's writing style seems as simple as her character's lives that she colors in chapter- by- chapter.
The reader becomes fully invested in these small town people who connect in beautifully written "slices of life."
Outstanding ending. A great piece of literature.
My favorite read so far in 2017.

The Scars and Sweetness of Life
A thoughtful story about the stories and scars we carry with us through life. How we cope with,over-compensate for or fold in on ourselves from the emotional weight of our past. I loved the compassion the writer has for these flawed and striving characters. This is a book the I will go back to.

A Perfect Match of Narrator to Book.
What I loved most was that the narrator took her time and never rushed the stories so beautifully written. Immediately upon finishing, I sent this book to my sister and thanked her for never making me feel lonely.

I loved this book. I had read MY NAME IS

which makes this next book more enjoyable,
but it definitely is not essential.

Her writing is random but very personal. Her stories make you reflect on your own experience. She certainly leaves you pondering the human condition. I loved this book!

Read “My Name is Lucy Barton “ first
I have loved everything Elizabeth Strout has written. She creates characters-ordinary people -that the reader can truly care about. Mostly, she writes with insight and compassion. I had read Lucy Barton a few years ago. After I listened to two of the stories in “Anything is Possible,” I knew I had to stop and go back and reread “Lucy” and I’m glad I did. These beautiful stories are so entwined with Lucy that you cheat yourself if you aren’t familiar with the earlier book; moreover, I got more meaning from “Lucy Barton “ the second time through.
I wasn’t sure I liked the narrator at first, but I came to really enjoy her characterization as she moved smoothly through the stories. This was an excellent listen and I was sorry when it ended.
