Debra's Reviews > Earthly Possessions

Wow! I loved it. I've loved everything I've ever read by Anne Tyler. I was a little unsure about this book after I'd read some of the less favourable reviews about it. I'm so glad I read it anyway. On the surface it appears nothing much happens but there is so much in her writing to unpick. She writes so beautifully and you feel so deeply for the main character. She's sad and strong and resilient and brave and separate. The now and then in the story connects seamlessly together.
