Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant

Abandoned by her wander lusting husband, stoic Pearl raised her three children on her own. Now grown, the siblings are inextricably linked by their memories-some painful-which hold them together despite their differences. Hardened by life's disappointments, wealthy, charismatic Cody has turned cruel and envious. Thrice-married Jenny is errant and passionate. And Ezra, the flawed saint of the family, who stayed at home to look after his mother, runs a restaurant where he cooks what other people are homesick for, stubbornly yearning for the perfect family he never had. Now gathered during a time of loss, they will reluctantly unlock the shared secrets of their past and discover if what binds them together is stronger than what tears them apart.

Soulful and redemptive-full of heartbreak and hope-this portrait of a family will remind you why Anne Tyler is one of the most beloved writers working today.
