Product Information

'Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant is a book to be settled into fully, tomorrow be damned. Funny, heart-hammering, wise.' The New York Times

"Her fiction has strength of vision, originality, freshness, unconquerable humor. This new novel delighted me - perhaps her best so far." New York Times "A novelist who knows what a proper story is ... [Tyler is] not only a good and artful writer, but a wise one as well" Newsweek "Excellently done; the minutiae of domestic landscapes, the lunatic irrationality of family quarrels, the torments of sibling rivalry" Sunday Telegraph "In her ninth novel she has arrived at a new level of power" New Yorker "Eudora Welty proclaimed: 'If I could have written the last sentence of Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant I'd have been happy the rest of my life'" -- Eudora Welty
