“Anne Tyler gives us a
wise, haunting, and deeply moving new novel in which she explores how a
middle-aged man, ripped apart by the death of his wife, is gradually restored
by her frequent appearances in their house, on the roadway, in the market. Crippled
in his right arm and leg, Aaron has spent his childhood fending off a sister
who wants to manage him. So when he meets Dorothy, a plain, outspoken,
independent young woman, she is like a breath of fresh air. Unhesitatingly, he
marries her, and they have a relatively happy, unremarkable marriage. But when
a tree crashes into their house and Dorothy is killed, Aaron feels as though he
has been erased forever. Only Dorothy's unexpected appearances from the dead
help him to live in the moment and to find some peace. Gradually he discovers,
as he works in the family's vanity-publishing business, turning out titles that
presume to guide beginners through the trials of life, that maybe for this
beginner there is a way of saying goodbye. A beautiful, subtle exploration of
loss and recovery, pierced throughout with Anne Tyler's humor, wisdom, and
always penetrating look at human foibles.".
