The new adult book from the much loved and best-selling author Judy Blume. When a series of traveler airplanes crashed in Elizabeth, NJ, within a three-month period in 1951-1952, Judy Blume was a teenager. "These events have lingered in my own mind ever since," says Blume. "It had been a crazy time. We were witnessing things which were incomprehensible to us as teens. Was it sabotage? An alien invasion? No-one knew, and people were understandably terrified." Against this history, Blume uses her thoughts to bring us the lives of three decades of individuals, friends, and strangers, who will be profoundly influenced by these events, either directly or indirectly. But life goes on, and Blume digs deep into her individuals - we see them coping not only with grief but with first love, estranged parents, difficult friendships, familial obligations, divorce, job ambitions, a grandparent's love, a widower's expectation, and everything in between.... Most important, In the Unlikely Event is filled with the same friendliness and authenticity which have gained Blume the hearts and intellects of listeners of all generations.
