INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE Tyler\'s novels are always worth scooping up--but especially this gently amusing soother, right now. --NPR LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE From the beloved Anne Tyler, a sparkling new novel--an instant New.
Tyler\'s novels are always worth scooping up--but especially this gently amusing soother, right now.
An intimate look into the heart and mind of a man who finds those around him just out of reach, and a funny, joyful, deeply compassionate story about seeing the world through new eyes, Redhead by the Side of the Road is a triumph, filled with Anne Tyler\'s signature wit and gimlet-eyed observation.
These surprises, and the ways they throw Micah\'s meticulously organized life off-kilter, risk changing him forever.
But one day his routines are blown apart when his woman friend (he refuses to call anyone in her late thirties a girlfriend) tells him she\'s facing eviction, and a teenager shows up at Micah\'s door claiming to be his son.
A self-employed tech expert, superintendent of his Baltimore apartment building, cautious to a fault behind the steering wheel, he seems content leading a steady, circumscribed life.
Micah Mortimer is a creature of habit.
