New York Times Bestseller - Eine unvergessliche Besetzung von Charakteren aus einer Kleinstadt kämpft in diesem neuen Roman der #1 Bestsellerautorin und Pulitzer-Preisträgerin Elizabeth Strout mit Liebe und Verlust. Ein bemerkenswertes Buch der Washington Post und New York Times - Eines der Top 10 Bücher des Jahres laut USA Today. In seiner Fülle, Struktur und Komplexität erinnert Anything Is Possible an Olive Kitteridge und erkundet das gesamte Spektrum menschlicher Emotionen durch die intimen Dramen von Menschen, die versuchen, sich selbst und andere zu verstehen. Hier sind zwei Schwestern: Die eine tauscht ihren Selbstrespekt gegen einen wohlhabenden Ehemann, während die andere in den Seiten eines Buches einen Seelenverwandten findet, der ihr Leben verändert. Der Hausmeister der örtlichen Schule wird in einer Begegnung mit einem isolierten Mann, dem er helfen möchte, auf die Probe gestellt; eine erwachsene Tochter sehnt sich nach der Liebe ihrer Mutter, während sie gleichzeitig die Glückseligkeit ihrer Mutter in einem fremden Land akzeptiert.
