With each new book, Maeve Binchy continues a impressive progression of sales and audience growth, reaching fans of all ages and backgrounds with her matchless wit, warmth, and sheer storytelling magic. Tara Road, her first full-length novel since The Glass Lake, again shows her incomparable understanding of the human heart in the tale of two women, one from Ireland, one from America, who switch lives, and in doing this learn much about each other, as well all the about themselves.
Ria lived on Tara Road in Dublin with her dashing husband, Danny, and their two children. She fully believed she was happily married, till the day Danny informed her he was leaving her to be with his young, pregnant girlfriend. By way of a chance phone call, Ria meets Marilyn, a female from New England struggling to come to conditions with her only son's death and now separated from her husband. The two women exchange houses for the summertime with extraordinary consequences, each learning that the other has a deep secret that can't ever be revealed.
Drawn into lifestyles vastly differing off their own, initially each resents the news of how well the other is getting on. Ria seems to have become a significant hostess, entertaining half the neighborhood, which initially irritates the reserved and withdrawn Marilyn, a female who have always guarded her privacy. Marilyn seems to have become bosom friends with Ria's children, as well as with Colm, a handsome restaurateur, whom Ria has begun to miss terribly. At the end of the summertime, the women at last meet face-to-face. Having learned a good deal, about themselves and about each other, they find they have become, firmly and forever, good friends.
A moving story rendered with the deft touch of your master artisan, Tara Road is Maeve Binchy at her very best--utterly beautiful, hauntingly unforgettable, totally original, and wholly enjoyable.
