Résumé

B>INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLERbr>LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZEbr>/b>br>b>Tyler''s novels are always worth scooping up--but especially this gently amusing soother, right now. --NPR/b>br>br>From the beloved Anne Tyler, a sparkling new novel about misperception, second chances, and the sometimes elusive power of human connection.b>br>/b>br>Micah Mortimer is a creature of habit. 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. br>br>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. These surprises, and the ways they throw Micah''s meticulously organized life off-kilter, risk changing him forever. br>br>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.
