Debut Bestseller and Costa First Novel Book Award winner 2017 The Sunday Times bestseller ‘Funny, touching and unpredictable’ Jojo Moyes Eleanor Oliphant has learned how to live on – but not how to live Eleanor Oliphant leads a simple life. She wears the same clothes to work each day, eats the same meal deal for lunch each day and buys the same two bottles of vodka to drink every weekend. Eleanor Oliphant is happy. Nothing is missing from her carefully timetabled life. Except for, infrequently, everything. One simple act of kindness is about to shatter the walls Eleanor has built around herself. Now she should discover ways to navigate the world that everyone else seems to take with no consideration – at the same time as in search of 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? An astonishing story that powerfully depicts the loneliness of life and the simple power of a little kindness
