Can lighting really strike twice? Just ask Eve, whose husband
walks out on her in the middle of a garage sale.
Eve's beloved Ivan died thirteen years ago in an automobile
accident. Her charming, boyish Chuck has taken a different exit out
of her life: hopping into his car in the middle of a garage sale
with no forewarning and departing their formerly happy upstate New
York home for points unknown. Now Eve's a boat adrift, subsisting
on a heartbreak diet of rue, disappointment, and woe-left alone to
care for Ivan's brilliant teenaged son, Marcus, and Chuck's
precocious, pragmatic nine-year-old daughter, Noni, while
contending with Charlotte, Eve's acerbic mother, who's come north
to "help" but hinders instead.
But life ultimately must go on, with its highs and lows, its
traumas and holidays, and well-meaning, if eccentric, friends. A
house and a heart in disrepair are painful burdens for a passionate
woman who's still in her prime. And while learning to cope with the
large and small tragedies that each passing day brings, Eve might
end up discovering that she's gained much more than she's lost.
A poignant, lovely, funny, and ultimately uplifting story of
love, family, and survival, Liz Rosenberg's Home Repair is an
unforgettable introduction to a lyrical, wise, and wonderfully
vibrant new literary voice.
