Anne Tyler received the Pulitzer Prize for her novel “Breathing Lessons.” Maggie is impetuous and spontaneous, Ira is thorough and leisurely. Maggie does stupid things. Ira is not guilty of such a sin. They have been married twenty-eight years. Their life is ordinary, calm and... boring. One sad day, they go on a road trip to attend the funeral of an old friend. But suddenly Maggie hears on the radio how her ex-daughter-in-law announces live that she is going to get married again. And the trip to the funeral turns into an expedition to save his son’s marriage. Touching, ironic, funny and poignant, this chronicle of a day in the life of Maggie and Ira is a deep dive into the heart of family relationships, comedy crossed with high drama. Breathing Lessons is a quiet masterpiece from one of today's finest writers.
