Life Changing (Pivotal, crucial, determining, defining, momentous, fateful, consequential, climacteric, transformational) 1 3,4,4,5,5,3,3,1,2,1 ======>> 29/10 = 2.9 http://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/51... This book gives the opportunity to understand the "character" of White Anglo Saxon Protestants (descendants of the immigrants of the "first wave", of the Puritans, who persevered all the hardships,and by their hard work, laid down the foundation of USA, as a country), living in the provincial Maine, which remains to be the last citadel of this ethnic and social group (to the north of the Mason-Dixon line). Elizabeth Strout masterfully shows the dominance of the "understatement" in the WASP's behavior. Moreover, she intentionally shows her own belonging to this group, by using lots of understatement in her style of the story telling. She purposely gives very minimum details, thus forcing the reader to reread the stories several times before it becomes more or less clear what really she was trying to *tell*. For example, with regards to Doyle Larkin - Roger and Louise Larkin's son, she intentionally makes it vague to understand what crime he committed and especially what kind of relationship he was with "that woman", whom he so violently killed via repeated numerous stabbing. Also Elizabeth Strout is very tacit, when two times she touches on the subject of the cultural differences (almost reaching the level of incompatibility and intolerance) between WASP's and Jews. One of the major plot lines in the book is dysfunctional relationship between Olive and her son - it is described very realistically and quite to the point. When Elizabeth Strout describes the relationship of Olive and Jack - both are in their 70s - I think that the sex part of it is not believable ...
