Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine

book written by Gail Honeyman

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine is Gail Honeymans debut novel - and what a debut! The book is very well written and both funny and very touching.
Eleanor is far from being completely fine. She has learned to survive, but not how to live. Her social skills are not exactly impressing and the reason for this is slowly revealed in the book, but not here. It has been a great pleasure to read the novel and quite a page turner. There are also many thought provoking situations and thoughts. Not at all a disadvantage, in spite of the devastating subject ,that it is at times very funny.
I don't think it is translated to Danish yet, but I guess that is only a question of time.
