Matriarch Mrs. Emerson is so set in her ways, she drives her kids crazy. Then she hires an eccentric handywoman who shakes up everyone‘s world. I can see why the house is filled with clocks ticking away & telling all different times. It‘s the perfect metaphor for a family that‘s completely out of synch! I love Anne Tyler more after every book. She keeps me entertained & always guessing.
4th and final #MakeMeReadIt book
Thanks @TheReadingMermaid

BeansPage You are most welcome sweetheart! 🤗 6y
Blaire Love the matching clock in the photo! 6y
Blaire Is this the same as clock dance? I know sometimes publishers use different names in different countries. 6y

MemoirsForMe @TheReadingMermaid I‘ll be onboard for your next challenge. 🤗❤️👍🏻 6y
MemoirsForMe @Blaire This is one of Anne‘s earlier books published in 1972. Not the same as Clock Dance(2018), which I also loved. 👍🏻 6y
MemoirsForMe @Blaire Thanks! I have a thing for old clocks. My grandparents gave me this one years ago. And it still chimes every hour. 😍🕰 6y
Blaire Oh nice. I‘m going to have to read it...I thought I had read all her old ones. 6y
