What is The Beginner's Goodbye : a Novel about?

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author Anne Tyler, The Beginner's Goodbye - a wise, haunting, and deeply moving new novel in which she explores how a middle-aged man, ripped apart by the death of his wife, is gradually restored by her frequent appearances"Anne Tyler takes the ordinary, the small, and makes them sing." - Rachel JoyceWhen Dorothy came back from the dead, it seemed to Aaron that some people simply didn't notice.The accident that killed Dorothy - involving an oak tree, a sun porch and some elusive biscuits - leaves Aaron bereft and the house a wreck. As those around him fuss and flap and bring him casserole after casserole, Aaron ploughs on. But then Dorothy starts to materialise in the oddest places. At first, she only comes for a short while, leaving Aaron longing for more. Gradually she stays for longer, and as they talk, they also bicker and the cracks that were present in their perfectly ordinary marriage start to reappear..."This is what Tyler does better than almost any contemporary writer. She peers at the forgotten areas of the everyday, the bits that are hard to pinpoint... She looks at people - at life - from the inside out." - Lucy Atkins, Sunday Times
