Discover a beautiful story about what it is to be human from Pulitzer prize-winning Sunday Times bestselling Anne Tyler How does a man addicted to routine - a man who flosses his teeth before love-making - cope with the chaos of everyday life? After the loss of his son and the departure of his wife, Macon neatly folds his anguish back into place and adapts the household on to more efficient lines. But with the arrival of Muriel, an eccentric and vulnerable dog trainer from the Meow-Bow dog clinic, his attempts at ordinary life are tragically and comically undone. **ANNE TYLER HAS SOLD OVER 8 MILLION BOOKS WORLDWIDE** 'Anne Tyler takes the ordinary, the small, and makes them sing' Rachel Joyce 'She knows all the secrets of the human heart' Monica Ali 'A masterly author' Sebastian Faulks 'I love Anne Tyler. I've read every single book she's written' Jacqueline Wilson

  1. Min favoritförfattare
    Sigrid Irene Richardsson, 11 december 2017

    Den här boken är en klassiker! Läs den!
    De övriga av Anne Tyler är också mycket bra läsning. "När Morgan går förbi" är en annan fantastisk läsupplevelse. Anne Tylers styrka är hennes personporträtt.
