From the incomparable Anne Tyler, a wise, gently humorous, and deeply compassionate novel about a schoolteacher, who has been forced to retire at sixty-one, coming to terms with the final phase of his life.
Liam Pennywell, who set out to be a philosopher and ended up teaching fifth grade, never much liked the job at that run-down private school, so early retirement doesn’t bother him. But he is troubled by his inability to remember anything about the first night that he moved into his new, spare, and efficient condominium on the outskirts of Baltimore. All he knows when he wakes up the next day in the hospital is that his head is sore and bandaged.
His effort to recover the moments of his life that have been stolen from him leads him on an unexpected detour. What he needs is someone who can do the remembering for him. What he gets is—well, something quite different.
We all know a Liam. In fact, there may be a little of Liam in each of us. Which is why Anne Tyler’s lovely novel resonates so deeply.

與我期望有齣入，節奏稍慢，故事圍繞老人與其前妻和子女，我不是十分感興趣。但細節處理保持一貫的水平，睡前讀一下還可以。依然無法摸清一些隱喻--諾亞不需要知道方嚮，因為整個世界已被淹沒。象徵老人的第二次人生不需要刻意導嚮？象徵人不需要那麼多，擁有的就是全部？
