Slowly, the friendship helps draw Eleanor out of her isolation, but also pushes her toward difficult truths about herself, her past, and her future.Įleanor is endearing for her mix of self-awareness and oblivious social awkwardness, and Raymond is an unexpected hero. Meanwhile, she finds herself in an unexpected friendship with her coworker, Raymond, when they help an elderly gentleman after a fall. She starts working out a self-improvement plan in anticipation of her future relationship with the musician, despite her mother’s cruel discouragement. Nevermind that she has no social life, no friends, and she tends to say brutally honest, awkward, and somewhat inappropriate things. She’s fine, and she’s even ready to pursue a relationship with a musician who seems perfect for her (once she actually meets him). Eleanor has her routine down to a science: work, weekly phone calls with her mother, and weekends alone with vodka.
