Summary
Anne Tyler's 15th novel takes us into the life of Rebecca and the noisy, rowdy, difficult members of the Davitch family. When Rebecca marries Joseph Davitch, she becomes the stepmother of his three kids, then has a daughter of her own. Her husband dies in a car crash, after which yet more Davitches come to live with her. Somehow, Rebecca-in the midst of her own troubles-holds it all together, but, she begins to suspect, at the cost of her own self. A New York Times Notable Book for 2001.

Media Reviews
"[M]aybe there's something glorious to be said, after all, for companionship, common cause and sanctuary. And what there is to say, Anne Tyler has been saying for decades, with gravity and grace." -- John Leonard
-- New York Times Book Review
"As the register for the truism that home is best, BACK WHEN WE WERE GROWNUPS is wittily and even movingly plotted-its message is that we are all in the grip of a cloying fatality that knows us better than we know ourselves....But Tyler's novels may be said to be family romances not only because their topic is family life, and their attitude towards this topic comedic, but because, in their observance of the minutiae of that life, they raise in readers an initially appealing but finally appalling ennui....[T]he strength of her work-and what makes it popular-is also its absolute flaw. For there has to be a limit to the amount of 'true-to-life' family drama that anyone can take, either in fiction or in reality; and there has to come a point when even Tyler's most devoted readers will begin to feel that there is more to life than she offers." -- Juliet Fleming
-- Times Literary Supplement
"Tyler handles the journey of middle-aged discovery with sure skill. What might have been mawkish is not even sentimental. The touch is light, the humour of the gentle kind that arises out of humdrum lives....Tyler's fans will probably recognize the ingredients and immediately know that the recipe will work...." -- Jane Charteris

The Color of Hope
by Susan Madison
Ruth Connelly used to think she had the perfect life--an attractive husband, two children, a partnership in a Boston law firm, and a summerhouse where generations of her family have reveled in the elemental beauty of the Maine coast. But without her even realizing it, everything has started disintegrating. This summer, there is no escape from the tensions which have surfaced between her, Paul, and their beautiful, troubled sixteen-year-old daughter Josie--or from the tragedy that overwhelms them when a long-promised sailing trip turns their son's birthday treat into a nightmare. Trapped in a spiral of guilt and denial, Ruth knows only the darkness of grief until she finds the courage to return to Maine and confront her loss. There, she finally learns to understand why we sometimes inflict the greatest pain on those we love the most. In a novel that brings to mind bestsellers like THE PILOT'S WIFE, A MAP OF THE WORLD, and DEEP END OF THE OCEAN, Susan Madison looks deep into the heart of marriage and motherhood with unforgettable power.
Distant Shores
by Kristin Hannah
In her remarkable New York Times bestseller, Summer Island , Kristin Hannah struck a chord in readers and critics alike with her portrayal of the bittersweet reunion between an errant mother and her unforgiving daughter. Now Hannah once again reveals the fragile ties that bind a family in transition, as two people choose to escape the limits of their ordinary lives and reach for the extraordinary promise that lies on Distant Shores . Elizabeth and Jackson Shore married young, raised two daughters, and weathered the storms of youth as they built a future together. But after the children leave home, they quietly drift apart. When Jack accepts a wonderful new job offer, Elizabeth puts her needs aside to follow him across the country. Until the sudden death of her father changes everything. Grieving and alone, she retreats to an isolated beach house where she packs away the last remnants of her parents’ lives. There, the pieces of a past she never knew unfold to reveal a tender story of lasting devotion, the kind of steadfast commitment that Elizabeth admits is missing from her own marriage. Faced with her own disillusionment, she makes a terrifying decision, risking everything she has for a second chance at happiness. Enriched by soul-stirring emotion and an appreciation for the simple joy of everyday miracles, Distant Shores is an exquisite reminder of the most precious gifts in life: friends and family, children and lovers, the strength to change, and the courage to forgive–all flawlessly captured by the graceful hands of Kristin Hannah.

New York: Knopf. May 1, 2001. 1st Edition. Hardcover (no. Near Fine /No DJ. On the first page of Tyler's stunning new novel, Rebecca Davitch, the heroi ne (and heroine is exactly the right word) realizes that she has become the "wrong person." No longer the "serene and dignified young woman" she was a t 20, at 53 Rebecca finds she has become family caretaker and cheerleader, a woman with a "style of dress edging dangerously close to Bag Lady." So sh e tries to do something about it. In the midst of her busy life as mother, grandmother and proprietor of the family business, the Open Arms (she hosts parties in the family's old Baltimore row house), Rebecca attempts to pick up the life she was leading before she married, back when she felt grownup . She visits her hometown in Virginia, locates the boyfriend she jilted and renews her intellectual interests. But as Rebecca ponders the life-that-mi ght-have-been, the reader learns about the life-that-was. At 20, she left c ollege and abandoned her high school sweetheart to marry a man who already had a large family to support. A year later, she had a baby of her own; fiv e years later, her husband died in an auto accident, and she was left to ra ise four daughters, tend to her aging uncle-in-law and support them all. An d a difficult lot they are, seldom crediting Rebecca for holding her rangy family together. Yet like all of Tyler's characters, they are charming in t heir dysfunction. And much as one feels for Rebecca, much as one wants her to find love, it's difficult to imagine her leaving or upsetting the family order. Tyler (The Accidental Tourist; Breathing Lessons) has a gift for cr eating endearing characters, but readers should find Rebecca particularly a ( more information)

Back When We Were Grownups
Tyler, Anne
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Alfred A. Knopf Incorporated, 2001. An irresistible new novel from Anne Tyler. At 53, Rebecca Davitch- mistress of The Open Arms, a crumbling 19th-century row house in Baltimore where giving parties is the family business-suddenly asks herself whether she has turned into the wrong person. Is she really this natural-born celebrator; joyous and out-giving? Certainly that's how Joe Davitch saw her 30-some years ago. And that's why this large-spirited older man, a divorce with three little girls, swept her into his orbit. Before she knew it, she was embracing his extended family (plus a child of their own) and hosting endless parties in the ornate, high-ceilinged rooms where people paid to celebrate their family occasions in style. But can Beck (as she is known to the Davitch clan) really recover the person she has left behind? A question that touches us all-and one that Anne Tyler explores with characteristic humor and wisdom in a novel one wishes would never end. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Near-Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. ( more information)
