Pearl Tull is nearing the end of her life but not of her memory. It was a Sunday night in 1944 when her husband left the little row house on Baltimore's Calvert Street, abandoning Pearl to raise their three children alone: Jenny, high-spirited and determined, nurturing to strangers but distant to those she loves; the older son, Cody, a wild and incorrigible youth possessed by the lure of power and money; and sweet, clumsy Ezra, Pearl's favorite, who never stops yearning for the perfect family that could never be his own. Now Pearl and her three grown children have gathered together again - with anger, hope, and a beautiful, harsh, and dazzling story to tell.

To day that this family is dysfunctional is an understatement. It opens as the mother of the family is dying. Then it goes through years and characters. I like some, I dislike others, and some I'm still not sure. Be prepared to be sad.
Would I recommend it? Yes, but if you've read a lot of Anne Tyler forget that she wrote it. You will like it better that way. I think the narration is 5 stars.
Well-written but kind of depressing
