Recommendations
We Were the Lucky Ones by Georgia Hunter
The roots of Georgia Hunter’s debut novel began when she learned she came from a family of Holocaust survivors. Based on true events, the Kurc family’s story begins with one son, Addy, in France, and the remainder of the family in Radom, Poland. Austria and Czechoslovakia have both fallen under Nazi rule. Then barely five months later, Germany invaded Poland. War and circumstances scatter the Kurc family members, challenging them to their limits of resourcefulness and fortitude.
Painstakingly researched, the author artfully paints an engrossing story of her ancestors’ struggles to survive Hitler and Stalin’s reigns of terror over the course of six years and their resolve to reunite.
Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman
Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine. While she lacks proper social skills and is apt to say whatever is on her mind, she continues to live her life as she pleases. She takes the transit to work every day, where she avoids useless chitchat with coworkers and treats herself to a frozen pizza and a bottle of vodka every Friday. After meeting Raymond, a friendly and somewhat sloppy IT guy from her office, life begins to drastically change for Eleanor as the pair rescue an elderly man who has fallen on the sidewalk. Eleanor, Raymond, and the elderly man, Sammy, develop an unlikely friendship which shows Eleanor that she deserves much more than she ever realized.
Gail Honeyman takes a bruised and tragic character, and through friendship and self-reflection, allows her to blossom into the wonderful Eleanor Oliphant.
