‘Funny, touching and unpredictable’ Jojo Moyes

Eleanor Oliphant has learned how to continue to exist – but not how to live

Eleanor Oliphant leads a simple life. She wears the same clothes to work on a daily basis, eats the same meal deal for lunch on a daily basis and buys the same two bottles of vodka to drink every weekend.

Eleanor Oliphant is happy. Nothing is missing from her carefully timetabled life. Aside from, occasionally, everything.

One simple act of kindness is about to shatter the walls Eleanor has built around herself. Now she will have to learn to navigate the world that everyone else seems to take as a right – at the same time as on the lookout for the courage to face the dark corners she’s have shyed away from all her life.

Change can be good. Change can be bad. But surely any change is better than… fine?

‘Heartwrenching and wonderful’ Nina Stibbe

‘Deft, compassionate and moving’ Paula McLain

‘I adored it. Skilled, perceptive, Eleanor’s world will feel familiar to you from the very first page. An outstanding debut!’ Joanna Cannon
