Elizabeth Strout
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Olive Kitteridge and My Name is Lucy Barton comes a “deeply moving” (The Washington Post) novel that “confirms Strout as the possessor of an irresistibly companionable, peculiarly American voice” (The Atlantic Monthly).
In the late 1950s, in a small New England town, Reverend Tyler Caskey has suffered a terrible loss and finds it hard to be the person he once was. He struggles to find the right words in his sermons and in his conversations with those facing crises of their own, and to bring his five-year-old daughter, Katherine, out of the silence she has observed in the wake of the family’s tragedy. Tyler’s usually patient and kind congregation now questions his leadership and propriety, and accusations are born out of anger and gossip. Then, in Tyler’s darkest hour, a startling discovery will test his parish’s humanity—and his own will to endure the trials that sooner or later test us all.

Katherine is in her first year of school and is very shy, afraid, and acting out inappropriately. Soon, the school decides to let a person who is studying psychology spend time studying Katherine. This brings Tyler and Katherine more problems, as the amateur, unfeeling diagnoses, fail to help.
At the same time, Tyler's housekeeper disappears. She is wanted for a crime, and whether or not she is guilty the town has condemned her and is passing increasingly false rumors about her and Tyler.
Given the times, the small town "everyone knows everyone else's business," the storied reticence of Mainers, and the downward spiral of Tyler and his daughter's lives, things finally come to a head, leaving him speechless before the congregation.
Strout's books are always excellent studies of human emotions, and Abide with Me continues her mastery in this vein. But to me the story was not as engaging as some of her others. One could predict the path the book would take to a certain extent, but it was still worth the read.
interesting, but less so than others by Strout
