Anne Tyler is probably my daughter's favorite author and she's growing on me as well. Her stories tend to be quiet pieces of everyday life but her characters are true and honest, people you might see everyday, people you might know.
This story takes place over about 10 to 12 hours but it packs in a lifetime. The story opens with Maggie and Ira on their way to Maggie's friend's husband's funeral which turns out to be more like a high school reunion.
Their meanderings there and back and what we learn about Ira, Maggie, love, life and marriage is what makes the book a winner.
