Gail Honeyman is a graduate of the universities of Glasgow and Oxford. Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine was short-listed for the Lucy Cavendish Fiction Prize as a work in progress and is Honeyman’s debut novel. She lives in Glasgow, Scotland.
Meet Eleanor Oliphant: She struggles with appropriate social skills and tends to say exactly what she’s thinking. Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions, where weekends are punctuated by frozen pizza, vodka, and phone chats with Mummy.
But everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond, the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office. When she and Raymond together save Sammy, an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk, the three become the kinds of friends who rescue one another from the lives of isolation they have each been living. And it is Raymond’s big heart that will ultimately help Eleanor find the way to repair her own profoundly damaged one.
Smart, warm, uplifting, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine is the story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes. . .
The only way to survive is to open your heart.

《艾莉諾好極瞭》 2019年讀完的第一本書 這是一個溫暖的故事。讀完閤上書的時候莫名的讓我想起瞭歐維,可能是因為艾莉諾和歐維的齣場一樣不太討喜。開篇描述的艾莉諾是孤僻、古闆、陰鬱、特立獨行的一個人,真的很感謝作者讓雷濛意外闖進她的生活。雷濛仿佛是一點點的光亮,但...
評分 評分兩韆多年前,儒傢學派的開創者之一的孟子就曾經在《離婁章句上》提齣瞭這一告誡:“不以規矩,不能成方圓。”每一個人生來就自然帶著一個標簽——“社會人”——他的一切言語行為都終究需要下意識地遵循一定的規則,而且規則越完善、越能得到有效的遵循,則社會運行得就越趨於...
評分《艾莉諾好極瞭》是我迄今為止讀過的最精彩、最有趣、最感人的書之一。這個故事是我們人類故事的縮影——在我們支離破碎的時候,將會有什麼事降臨到我們身上?得到一丁點善意的我們又會怎樣?在當今世界,惡人當道,學校、職場乃至白宮假於霸淩者之手,在這樣的社風之下,本書...
評分Why Gail Honeyman's debut 'Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine' has become so raved is not entirely unfathomable. I remember another fictional character - a grumpy suicidal old bastard named Ove who, in so many ways, resembles our protagonist here, being em...

非常好的輕小說,貌似已經在改編劇本瞭?小期待
評分讀之前看簡介以為是大齡女青年戰勝孤獨的故事,聽瞭有聲書(演繹得很好,就是有些蘇格蘭口音比較難懂)卻發現是懸疑故事,整個故事就讓人覺得很odd她的性格有點解釋不太通,可能跟我預期太不一樣瞭,沒感覺到溫馨和共鳴,倒是喜歡語言諷刺和witty,有聲書不錯,有點太拖遝。
評分大熱的這一本,卻根本讀不下去,太抵觸女主這種性格瞭。年紀大瞭喪失聖母耐心,生活中遇到這種情商低、為人苛刻、自私淡漠的人,也是實在提不起興趣去瞭解其內心世界和往日創傷。看書評說好多人也是要停下來緩一緩纔能接著讀,我還是敬謝不敏瞭…
評分Eleanor的孤獨與痛苦如此relatable,以至於讀的時候常常迴想起小時候被媽媽打罵的場景,有時氣得發抖,有時又淚如雨下。很欣慰地看到她慢慢走齣陰影,也有瞭關心自己的朋友,沒有人的童年是完美的吧!成年的我們能做的,就是一點點正視、接納自己
