The listing, Breathing Lessons Pulitzer Prize Winning Novel by Anne Tyler has ended.
This Pulitzer Prize winner was also a New York Times Bestseller and Time Magazine Book of the Year, It tells the story of 1 day in the life of Maggie and Ira Moran, who have been married for twenty-eight years–and it shows: in their quarrels, in their routines, in their ability to tolerate with affection each other’s eccentricities. Maggie, a kooky, lovable meddler and an irrepressible optimist, wants nothing more than to fix her son’s broken marriage. Ira is infuriatingly practical, a man “who should have married Ann Landers.” And what begins as a day trip to a funeral becomes an adventure in the unexpected. As Maggie and Ira navigate the riotous twists and turns, they intersect with an assorted cast of eccentrics–and rediscover the magic of the road called life and the joy of having somebody next to you to share the ride . . . bumps and all.
