"Una novela calida y divertida, que despierta el intelecto y nos hace reir. Una version femenina del gran Ignatius Reilly. Eleanor Oliphant siempre dice lo que piensa. Lucha por dejar de ser alguien con pocas habilidades sociales. Se ha preparado un calendario vital cuidadoso y estricto para evitar interacciones sociales: los fines de semana los pasa sola comiendo pizza congelada y bebiendo vodka y todos los miercoles habla con su madre. Pero todo cambia cuando Eleanor conoce a Raymond, el informatico de la oficina. Juntos abandonaran la soledad en la que han estado viviendo. Una novela tierna y elegante. La historia de una heroina fuera de lo comun, cuya inexplicable rareza e ingenio descarado la llevara a darse cuenta de que la unica manera de sobrevivir en el mundo real es abriendo su corazon a la amistad."--Amazon.com.
"Smart, warm, uplifting, [this book] is the story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes that the only way to survive is to open your heart."--Amazon.com.

Work Description
No one’s ever told Eleanor that life should be better than fine.
Meet Eleanor Oliphant: She struggles with appropriate social skills and tends to say exactly what she’s thinking. Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions, where weekends are punctuated by frozen pizza, vodka, and phone chats with Mummy.
But everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond, the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office. When she and Raymond together save Sammy, an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk, the three become the kinds of friends who rescue one another from the lives of isolation they have each been living. And it is Raymond’s big heart that will ultimately help Eleanor find the way to repair her own profoundly damaged one.
