Acerca de esta escucha

Barnaby Gaitlin was never a bad kid, but he was certainly doing his best to impersonate one. As a teenager, he developed a habit of breaking into other people’s houses. But he wasn’t interested in the valuable loot - he just liked to read people’s mail, peruse their family albums, and maybe pocket a few personal mementos. Now almost 30 and divorced, he finds himself working for Rent-aBack, which helps the elderly and infirm move furniture or take down their Christmas trees. It’s the perfect career for Barnaby: With each job, he’s able to steal a glimpse into a customer’s house and life.

Then Barnaby meets Sophia. Her inherent, unshakeable goodness is totally foreign to him - and irresistible. With small moments of growth, Barnaby struggles to become the good man he hopes to be, finding that life rarely happens all at once but rather builds over time, patch by patch.

Such great insight into family dynamics and why “black sheep” struggle

Anne Tyler is masterful at building multifaceted characters. I think Barnaby Gatelin might be my favorite.

Such a Great Book

I read this at exactly the right time in my life. Every part of it resonated. I love the compassion and the intimate insight into the lives of all people, but especially those who are dying.

Powerful life lessons

Excellent narration and a masterful delivery of dialogue.
After revisiting Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant, The Accidental Tourist and Celestial Navigation, it was refreshing to follow a man who wasn’t as emotionally stunted, for all of his obvious flaws and arrested development. As with the other books, I enjoyed Tyler’s surprisingly detailed insights into behavior and familial suffocation, with the emphasis on how we confine ourselves in a community’s notion of who we are.
I related strongly to the main character’s dependency on positive opinions to give him purpose, as well as to the way unwise relationship choices provide valuable insights into self discovery.

beautiful

My first Anne Tyler novel, and I'm so glad I finally read her. Beautifully written, touching interactions and relationships, realistic human experiences that touch on ways anyone could interact with their family, strangers, and themselves. Can't wait to read more or her.

A Good Read, but

First time reader of Anne Tyler. I must say I love the characters, there is something of a Jane Austen in Anne Tyler in the way she looks at her contemporaries and depicts them on paper. Their description is subtle and very relatable at the same time. However , the story is so-so. First there is too much of the same story over and over again ( the main character's past ) . The end is abrupt and ambiguous. It could be ok , why not ? It could be a choice made from the writer. But after 12 hours or so of listening to Barnaby's psyche and doubts, the reader is suddenly abandoned , with no explanation. You kind of find yourself in the position of a shrink listening to his insecure patient. After a while, it's a bit tiresome and because you are no shrink, there is no paycheck .

Engaging

I am a Tyler fan. I enjoyed the character development. It was not a predictable read. These families felt very real in their complicated lives and relationships.

Complex but easy to follow storyline

This was one of those books that I could start stop, read or listen to other books and come back to anytime. It was good listening in the evenings when I didn’t want to stress about what is going on in the world today.
