Through the New York Times bestselling author of Circle of Friends, The Glass Lake, and Evening Class comes a sensational collection of fifteen Christmas stories filled with Maeve Binchy's trademark wit, charm, and sheer storytelling genius. In "A Typical Irish Christmas," a grieving widower heads for any occasion in Ireland and finds an urgent destination not only for himself, but also for a father and daughter in crisis. . . . In "Pulling Together," a teacher not yet out of her twenties sees her affair with a married man at a turning point as Christmas Eve approaches. . . . And in the title story, "This Year IT'LL BE Different," a female with a complacent husband and grown children enters a season that will forever alter her life, and theirs. . .
These stories, and a dozen more, powerfully evoke many lives--from step-families grappling with exes to children caught in grown-up tugs-of-war--during the main one holiday when feelings cannot be easily hidden. The time of year may be magical, imbued with meaning. However the situations are timeless. And Maeve Binchy makes us value them all.
