Brief review:
Macon Leary is a travel writer who really hates to leave home. He writes books for people who are just like him, who really just want all the comforts of home no matter where they are.

Macon is uncomfortable with his life, his surroundings, his work, his associates, and even his dog, Edward. Social interaction is not his forte, nor his family's. He dislikes any kind of change, is compulsive, and. The systems he devises to make life easier are hilarious, such as agitating his clothes underfoot while he takes a shower!

His usually sedate life takes many twists and turns during the years following his son's brutal murder. He is forced to examine his failed marriage and his new relationship with the eccentric Muriel, the likes of whom he has never encountered--she is impulsive, messy, pushy, and loves to talk. From this odd pairing, there is much to learn.
