My husband is planning to leave me soon, and he thinks that I don't know. Can you believe that after fourteen years of marriage and three kids, he simply wants to discard me like I am trash? Not going to happen. Throughout our entire marriage, he lied and I ignored it, he cheated and I still stood by his side. But now, he has double-crossed me, and dragging him through a messy divorce simply won't cut deep enough. No. I want my pound of flesh. Not literally, of course, because I'm no killer, but then again, thanks to my husband, I've developed a knack for lying.

When I signed up to be a tutor, I thought I’d be helping kids with homework, not living inside their minds. My name’s Matt Gilbertson, a college freshman who just needed a job to get by.

Now, I'm not just teaching math or history. I’m actually living in my student’s mind. Ten-year-old Lilly becomes my world — her friends, her family, her struggles, and her strict father’s high expectations.

At times stern, at other times patient, at times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby, Maine, and in the world at large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance; a former student who has lost the will to live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse.

Some Pig. Humble. Radiant. These are the words in Charlotte's Web, high up in Zuckerman's barn. Charlotte's spider web tells of her feelings for a little pig named Wilbur, who simply wants a friend.

Olive, Again follows the blunt, contradictory yet deeply lovable Olive Kitteridge as she grows older, navigating the second half of her life as she comes to terms with the changes - sometimes welcome, sometimes not - in her own existence and in those around her. Olive adjusts to her new life with her second husband, challenges her estranged son and his family to accept him, experiences loss and loneliness, witnesses the triumphs and heartbreaks of her friends and neighbours in the small coastal town of Crosby, Maine - and, finally, opens herself to new lessons about life.
