Olive Kitteridge is a 2008 novel or short story cycle by American author Elizabeth Strout.[1][2] Set in Maine in the fictional coastal town of Crosby, it comprises 13 stories that are interrelated but narratively discontinuous and non-chronological.[2] Olive Kitteridge is a main character in some stories and has a lesser or cameo role in others.[2] Six of the stories had been published in periodicals between 1992 and 2007.
The novel won the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and was a finalist for the 2008 National Book Critics Circle Award. HBO produced a four-part miniseries adaptation featuring Frances McDormand in the title role, which aired on November 2 and 3, 2014.[3][4][5] The series won eight awards at the 2015 Primetime Emmys.[6] A sequel to the novel, titled Olive, Again, was published on October 15, 2019 by Random House.[7]
