Anne Tyler

Her brother-in-law Zeb is always nearby, and she has also inherited her father-in-law, the almost-centenarian Poppy. While organizing a party for NoNo's wedding, Rebecca, now fifty, begins to think about her life; the question crosses her mind as to what her life would have been like if it had developed in a different direction.
