A few years ago I fell in love with a book called Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. It was about an older woman who spent a lot of time alone and had trouble fitting into the world. It was a beautiful portrait that I identified with a lot. So I’m always on the look out for books about people who are loners, or who don’t fit into society like they are “supposed to.” These are my people and here are some books about them.
The Main Library is closed for essential preventative maintenance with an anticipated reopening in late October.
