The first thing you need to know is that Eleanor Oliphant is NOT completely fine. There was an incident when Eleanor was just 10 years old and she spent the rest of her childhood in foster care. It wasn't bad foster care but she never felt loved. Her method of communication is odd and I kept wondering if she had a form of Asperger's or if she just never learned to interact with others. She has never really had any friends and then she meets a coworker who is putting forth the effort to be friends and it triggers quite a lot of emotions for Eleanor and she isn't prepared to deal with any of them. Great read!! The last thing you need to know is that Eleanor Oliphant WILL be completely fine.
