One assumes that Maeve Binchy's fiction always on the bestseller list is sold mainly to women: the broader canvas of politics, business & legal matters don't seem to engage her interest. She's at her best in the intimate minutiae of domestic life hopes & dreams, matters of the heart & she's well served by her cousin Kate, who narrates her audio books with immense skill & conviction. Tara Road is in Dublin, where Ria has created an exquisite home for her adored husband Danny & her two children. Her kitchen is a warm, convivial meeting place for family & friends, but Danny seems too busy to enjoy it. To coax him back into the family circle, Ria suggests they have another baby, whereupon he confesses that he's in love with a teenage girl whom he's made pregnant, & with whom he intends to live. Realising that she's been living in a fool's paradise, Ria arranges a house exchange with a New Englander whose marriage is also on the rocks, a month in someone else's life should free them both from their misery. But the reality is more complicated, because the women have not been entirely open with each other. Skeletons emerge from cupboards, & while some characters lose out, others rise like phoenixes from the ashes of their former lives. Welcome to Binchy's variegated world, 17.7cm x 11.2cm x 3.1, pages 488 ...
