Magnificent * Observer * Deliciously funny and sharply observed * Guardian * Wise and funny...a multidimensional exploration of what it means to belong, not only to a family but also to a nation * Sunday Times * Out of this everyday material she spins gold: stories so achingly truthful, so achingly funny, so sad and so real that you can only marvel * Daily Mail * Anne Tyler draws a comedy that is not so much brilliant as luminous its observant sharpness sweetened by a generous understanding of human fallibility * Sunday Telegraph *
