Eleanor Rigby is the story of Liz, a self-described drab, overweight, crabby, and friendless middle-aged woman, and her unlikely reunion with the charming and strange son she gave up for adoption. His arrival changes everything, and sets in motion a rapid-fire plot with all the twists and turns we expect of Coupland. By turns funny and heartbreaking, Eleanor Rigby is a fast-paced read and a haunting exploration of the ways in which loneliness affects us all.

Quotes

  • Diana Khrushchovahas quoted4 years ago
    plump frumpiness rendered me asexual.
  • Diana Khrushchovahas quoted4 years ago
    One of my big problems is time sickness. When I feel lonely, I assume that the mood will never pass—that I'll feel lonely and bad for the rest of my life, which means that I've wrecked both the present and the future
  • Diana Khrushchovahas quoted4 years ago
    When I was born, the doctor took one look as he held me, bloodied and squalling, and asked the nurse if there was anything good on TV that night. My parents looked at me, said, "Well, whatever," and then discussed what colour to reupholster the living-room sofa. I'm only half joking
