If you enjoy reading, I highly recommend reading the adult fiction book of the same title before watching this excellent miniseries. The book would have been very difficult to adapt, and Jane Anderson did a wonderful job. The performances by Frances McDormand, Richard Jenkins and others are fantastic. If you are prone to seasonal affective disorder, you may want to read and/or watch before winter sets in since Olive suffers from depression and the story can be bleak--but it is also beautiful.
