Since Terry McMillanas breakout novel, "Waiting to Exhale," surged onto the bestseller lists, her irreverent, hilarious, and pitch-perfect tales of womenas lives and contemporary issues have captivated critics and readers alike. With "The Interruption of Everything," McMillan takes on the fault lines of midlife and family life and reminds us once again of the redeeming power of friendship. Marilyn Grimes, wife and mother of three, has made a career of deferring her dreams to build a suburban California home and lifestyle with her workaholic husband, Leon. She also troubleshoots for her grown kids, cares for her live-in mother-in-law (and elderly poodle, Snuffy), keeps tabs on her girlfriends Paulette and Bunny and her own aging mother and foster sistera and holds down a part- time job. But at forty-four, Marilynas got too much on her plate and nothing to feed her passion. She feels like sheas about ready to jump. Sheas just not sure where. Highly entertaining, deeply human, a page-turner full of heart and soul, this time McMillan turns her eye to the question of how one woman can start putting her own needs higher on the to-do list while not shortchanging those she loves. "The Interruption of Everything" is a triumphant testament to the fact that the detour is the path, and living life aby the numbersa never quite adds up.
