A delightful, old-fashioned love story with a uniquely twenty-first-century twist, Landing is a romantic comedy that explores the pleasures and sorrows of long-distance relationshipsthe kind millions of us now maintain mostly by plane, phone, and Internet. Sle is a stylish citizen of the new Dublin, a veteran flight attendant whos traveled the world. Jude is a twenty-five-year-old archivist, stubbornly attached to the tiny town of Ireland, Ontario, in which she was born and raised. On her first plane trip, Judes and Sles worlds touch and snag at Heathrow Airport. In the course of the next year, their lives, and those of their friends and families, will be drawn into a new, shaky orbit. This sparkling, lively story explores age-old questions: Does where you live matter more than who you live with? What would you give up for love, and would you be a fool to do so?
At the Vancouver Writers Fest last night, Donoghue assured us that: "Not all my books are wrist-slittingly dark." Her counter example was Landing, a lesbian romantic comedy. #VWF16
