Overview
«Este libro, esta autora, son magníficos». -ANN PATCHETT
Todo es posible cuenta la historia de los habitantes de Amgash, una ciudad rural de Illinois donde nació Lucy Barton, quien luego se convirtió en una escritora de éxito afincada en Nueva York.
Cuando Lucy vuelve a su lugar de origen al cabo de diecisiete años para visitar a los hermanos que dejó atrás, el regreso desencadena en quienes la conocieron recuerdos de soledad y condescendencia, sentimientos fuertes y sutiles, y la sensación de que un abismo creciente separa los deseos y la realidad de cada cual. Con esta novela luminosa se consolida la importancia de Elizabeth Strout como una de las autoras más apreciadas y respetadas de Estados Unidos.
«Este es un libro magnánimo e irónico sobre la vida cotidiana, y Strout se mete bajo la piel de sus personajes hasta que sientes que los ves por dentro». -USA TODAY
«En este libro sabio y excelente, el dolor y la sanación existen en perpetua dependencia». -THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An unforgettable cast of small-town characters copes with love and loss in this “compulsively readable” (San Francisco Chronicle) novel from #1 bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout
“This book, this writer, are magnificent.”—Ann Patchett
Winner of The Story Prize • A Washington Post and New York Times Notable Book • One of USA Today’s top 10 books of the year
Recalling Olive Kitteridge in its richness, structure, and complexity, Anything Is Possible explores the whole range of human emotion through the intimate dramas of people struggling to understand themselves and others.
Here are two sisters: One trades self-respect for a wealthy husband while the other finds in the pages of a book a kindred spirit who changes her life. The janitor at the local school has his faith tested in an encounter with an isolated man he has come to help; a grown daughter longs for mother love even as she comes to accept her mother’s happiness in a foreign country; and the adult Lucy Barton (the heroine of My Name Is Lucy Barton, the author’s celebrated New York Times bestseller) returns to visit her siblings after seventeen years of absence.
Reverberating with the deep bonds of family, and the hope that comes with reconciliation, Anything Is Possible again underscores Elizabeth Strout’s place as one of America’s most respected and cherished authors.
