SYNOPSIS: Anne Tyler was born in Minneapolis in 1941 but grew up in Raleigh, North Carolina. She graduated at nineteen from Duke University, and went on to do graduate work in Russian studies at Columbus University. Anne Tyler has written thirteen novels; her eleventh novel, Breathing Lessons, was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1988. She is a member of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters. She and her husband, Taghi Modarressi, live in Baltimore and have two grown daughters. REVIEWS: "Admirers of Anne Tyler--and they are legion--will certainly succumb to her new novel. No better proof of the author's expertise could be found in the fact that although she appears to be writing the mildest of escapist fables her novels manage to obliterate most of her rivals and indeed her successors."--Anita Brookner in The Spectator (London). "In Anne Tyler's engaging new novel . . . her gift is to recognize that our lives are most often worn away by the accrual of minor injuries, and that our motivations are baffling in their weave."--Carol Shields in The Globe and Mail. "Wonderfully satisfying . . . utterly compelling . . . Ladder of Years is virtually flawless."--Chicago Tribune. "Her characters stumble out of the pages of the book, hang around, have supper with us, stay the night and never quite leave. Ladder of Years is a fugue to change one's life . . . Her situations are earthbound until you notice that they are gliding along two inches above the earth--she subverts fantasy with the domestic."--LA Times Book Review. "Anne Tyler delights in the connections between people, and her eye for the intimacy revealed in domestic routines is laser-sharp. Her insights into the accommodations necessary in a marriage are profound and heartening. Ladder of Years takes a wise, affectionate look beyond 'they lived happily ever after' and sees something miraculous."--The Ottawa Citizen. "Every scene breathes with immediacy. Lifelikeness almost lifts characters off the page. Ladder of Years ruefully contemplates the unhaltable passage of time. But, scintillating with joie de vivre, it also offers an intensely appealing way of passing it."--The Sunday Times (London). Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Codice articolo 004708
