“What a treat.” —Washington Post

“Simply exquisite.” —Liane Moriarty
“Nobody understands human nature better than Tyler. And nobody understands the complexities of love the way she does.” —Boston Globe

“Three Days in June is like reading a hug.” —Minneapolis Star Tribune
Gail Baines is having a bad day. To start, she loses her job—or quits, depending on whom you ask. Tomorrow her daughter, Debbie, is getting married, and she hasn’t even been invited to the spa day organized by the mother of the groom. Then, Gail’s ex-husband, Max, arrives unannounced on her doorstep, carrying a cat, without a place to stay, and without even a suit.
But the true crisis lands when Debbie shares with her parents a secret she has just learned about her husband to be. It will not only throw the wedding into question but also stir up Gail and Max’s past.
Told with deep sensitivity and a tart sense of humor, full of the joys and heartbreaks of love and marriage and family life, Three Days in June is a triumph, and gives us the perennially bestselling, Pulitzer Prize–winning writer at the height of her powers.]]>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C10752306https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C10752306Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/10752306980EBOOKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593803493/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2523042https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2523042Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2523042126PAPERBACKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593466407/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2431441https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2431441Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2431441126LPRINTenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593556603/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2398887https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2398887Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2398887126BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593321096/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the beloved Pulitzer Prize–winning author of A Spool of Blue Thread—a funny, joyful, brilliantly perceptive journey deep into one Baltimore family’s foibles, from a boyfriend with a red Chevy in the 1950s up to a longed-for reunion with a grandchild.
“A quietly subversive novel, tackling fundamental assumptions about womanhood, motherhood and female aging.” —The New York Times Book Review
The Garretts take their first and last family vacation in the summer of 1959. They hardly ever leave home, but in some ways they have never been farther apart. Mercy has trouble resisting the siren call of her aspirations to be a painter, which means less time keeping house for her husband, Robin. Their teenage daughters, steady Alice and boy-crazy Lily, could not have less in common. Their youngest, David, is already intent on escaping his family's orbit, for reasons none of them understand. Yet, as these lives advance across decades, the Garretts' influences on one another ripple ineffably but unmistakably through each generation.
Full of heartbreak and hilarity, French Braid is classic Anne Tyler: a stirring, uncannily insightful novel of tremendous warmth and humor that illuminates the kindnesses and cruelties of our daily lives, the impossibility of breaking free from those who love us, and how close—yet how unknowable—every family is to itself.]]>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C6363131https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C6363131Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6363131980EBOOKA novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593321102/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C948499https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C948499Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/948499126BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781400042074/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1645322https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1645322Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1645322126BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781101874271/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1773080https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1773080Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1773080126PAPERBACKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780553394399/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1655395https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1655395Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1655395126LPRINTA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780804194723/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1090575https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1090575Tue, 31 Jan 2006 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1090575126PAPERBACKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780345472458/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C973093https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C973093Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/973093126LPRINTA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780375433368/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1279553https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1279553Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1279553126PAPERBACKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780345470614/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Clock Dance comes the story of four generations unfolding in and around the lovingly worn house that has always been the Whitshank family's anchor. • MAN BOOKER PRIZE NOMINEE
“Absorbing and deeply satisfying.” —Entertainment Weekly

"It was a beautiful, breezy, yellow-and-green afternoon ...” This is how Abby Whitshank always describes the day she fell in love with Red in July 1959.
From Red’s parents, newly arrived in Baltimore in the 1920s, to the grandchildren carrying the Whitshank legacy boisterously into the twenty-first century, the Whitshanks are one of those families that radiate an indefinable kind of specialness, but like all families, their stories reveal only part of the picture: Abby and Red and their four grown children have accumulated not only tender moments, laughter, and celebrations, but also jealousies, disappointments, and carefully guarded secrets.]]>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C1929917https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C1929917Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1929917980EBOOKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781101874288/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the beloved Pulitzer Prize–winning author—a rich and compelling novel about a mismatched marriage and its consequences, spanning three generations
They seemed like the perfect couple—young, good-looking, made for each other. The moment Pauline, a stranger to the Polish Eastern Avenue neighborhood of Baltimore (though she lived only twenty minutes away), walked into his mother’s grocery store, Michael was smitten. And in the heat of World War II fervor, they are propelled into a hasty wedding. But they never should have married.
Pauline, impulsive, impractical, tumbles hit-or-miss through life; Michael, plodding, cautious, judgmental, proceeds deliberately. While other young marrieds, equally ignorant at the start, seemed to grow more seasoned, Pauline and Michael remain amateurs. In time their foolish quarrels take their toll. Even when they find themselves, almost thirty years later, loving, instant parents to a little grandson named Pagan, whom they rescue from Haight-Ashbury, they still cannot bridge their deep-rooted differences. Flighty Pauline clings to the notion that the rifts can always be patched. To the unyielding Michael, they become unbearable.
From the sound of the cash register in the old grocery to the counterculture jargon of the sixties, from the miniskirts to the multilayered apparel of later years, Anne Tyler captures the evocative nuances of everyday life during these decades with such telling precision that every page brings smiles of recognition. Throughout, as each of the competing voices bears witness, we are drawn ever more fully into the complex entanglements of family life in this wise, embracing, and deeply perceptive novel.]]>https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C50996https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C50996Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/50996980EBOOKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781400042982/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1279732https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1279732Mon, 31 Jan 2005 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1279732126PAPERBACKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780449911594/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1402130https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1402130Mon, 31 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1402130126EBOOKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307784520/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C262066https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C262066Sun, 31 Jan 1982 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/262066126LPRINTenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780816134380/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C451810https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C451810Thu, 31 Jan 1991 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/451810126BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780679403616/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C689547https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C689547Wed, 31 Jan 1996 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/689547126PAPERBACKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780449911600/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2233805https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C2233805Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2233805126BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780525658412/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1465891https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1465891Tue, 31 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1465891126BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307957276/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1322963https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C1322963Sat, 31 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1322963126BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307272409/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C561247https://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S126C561247Tue, 31 Jan 1995 00:00:00 GMThttps://chipublib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/561247126BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780679439417/MC.GIF&client=chicagoplb&type=xw12&oclc=
