Tyler's eye and ear for familial give and take is unerring, her humanity irresistible. You'll want to turn back to the first chapter the moment you finish the last." -People (Page-Turner of the Week) "STUNNING . . . 'Once upon a time,' the story begins, 'there was a woman wh o discovered she had turned into the wrong person.' . . . With Rebecca Davi tch, Tyler has created a character who is brave enough to look back on her life and to imagine herself making different kinds of choices. Brave enough to wonder what honesty looks like, whether there is ever really a single d istillation of self that is unshakable and true. . . . Anne Tyler has a tal ent for spinning out characters . . . who go on living long after their sto ries end." -The Baltimore Sun "Her characters endear themselves to the reader with their candor and their wit and their simple decency. . . . The charm of an Anne Tyler novel lies in the clarity of her prose and the wisdom of her observations." -The Washington Post Book World "RESEMBLES JANE AUSTEN'S PERSUASION IN THAT IT'S A NOVEL ABOUT SECOND CHANC ES . . . The tension that keeps the narrative alive is our desire for Rebec ca to get the recognition and respect that we know she deserves from her fa mily, and from herself. It's always good to have a character to root for." -San Jose Mercury News.
