內容簡介
如果有人問你過得如何，你就該回答「還好」。
而不該說自己昨晚哭到睡著，已經連續兩天沒跟人說話，
你只需要說「一切都很好」。

「有些人，特別是軟弱的人，害怕孤獨。
他們無法理解，孤獨能帶來某種釋放，
一旦你領悟到自己誰也不需要，你就可以照顧自己。
重點就是這件事：最好自己能照顧自己，
因為不論多麼賣力，你也保護不了其他人。
如果你嘗試，然後失敗了，你的世界就會隨之崩毀，燒成灰燼。」
Number-one New York Times best-seller and the perfect holiday gift.
A Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick
"Beautifully written and incredibly funny, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is about the importance of friendship and human connection. I fell in love with Eleanor, an eccentric and regimented loner whose life beautifully unfolds after a chance encounter with a stranger; I think you will fall in love, too!" (Reese Witherspoon)
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.
Soon to be a major motion picture produced by Reese Witherspoon, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is the smart, warm, and uplifting story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes. . .
The only way to survive is to open your heart.
