When I woke up this morning I was missing something. I hadn't realized it yet, but I was. I'd slept well, had a fresh cup of coffee in my hand, and was happily scrolling through my FB newsfeed. Things were good.
Then I saw a post that changed everything.
I hadn't known how badly I wanted to see
Olive Kitteridge on screen until that moment. I clicked the link, my eyes widening as I read that HBO and Playtone are set to begin filming on a miniseries shortly.
http://bangordailynews.com/2013/09/02...Though Elizabeth Strout's Pulitzer prize winning novel is one of my all time favorites, I hadn't thought of Olive and her endearing, bitterly scathing personality in years. But it's all coming back.
And now, coffee still in hand, I am desperate to see Olive's "Little Burst" acted to perfection by Francis McDormand.
Waiting for this unexpected surprise will be hard, but until then, at least I've got the book.
