Everyone knows a couple like the Morans. Maggie, with her scatterbrained ways and her just slightly irritating-but goodhearted-attemps to make everything right for everyone...And Ira, infinitely patient, who's addicted to solataire and who whistles out popular tunes, the only barometer of his moods. They've learned all there is to know about each other, two ordinary lives in a comfortably routine marriage. But on the road to a friend's funeral, they make some unexpected detours and discover how extraordinary their ordinary lives really are...
Another wonderful book by Anne Tyler!
