Another unhappy woman's book from Strout but I liked it but not as much as OLIVE KITTERIDGE. I have read everything Strout has written she's that good. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE is a series of loosely related stories like many of Strout's books. It might be read as a sequel to Strout's previous novel, MY NAME IS LUCY BARTON. Many of the minor characters from BARTON appear in the connected short stories. Here, Lucy's sister, Vickie, brother Pete, and high school janitor, Tommy Guptil, resurrect memories. of their lives often related to Lucy. Lucy's novel, acts as the catalyst for these memories. Strout's artistry expertly weaves these characters together.
