About this product

Product Information

LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * From the beloved Pulitzer Prize-winning author, a sparkling novel about misperception, second chances, and the sometimes elusive power of human connection. Micah Mortimer is a creature of habit. A self-employed tech expert, superintendent of his Baltimore apartment building, cautious to a fault behind the steering wheel, he seems content leading a steady, circumscribed life. But one day his routines are blown apart when his woman friend (he refuses to call anyone in her late thirties a "girlfriend") tells him she's facing eviction, and a teenager shows up at Micah's door claiming to be his son. These surprises, and the ways they throw Micah's meticulously organized life off-kilter, risk changing him forever. An intimate look into the heart and mind of a man who finds those around him just out of reach, and a funny, joyful, deeply compassionate story about seeing the world through new eyes, Redhead by the Side of the Road is a triumph, filled with Anne Tyler's signature wit and gimlet-eyed observation.

Reviews
"Anne Tyler has every gift a great novelist needs: intent observation, empathy and language both direct and surprising. She has unembarrassed goodness as well. In this time of snark, preening, sub-tweeting and the showy torment of characters, we could use more Tyler." --Amy Bloom, New York Times Book Review "If ever there was a perfect time for a new Anne Tyler novel, it's now--and this one doesn't disappoint . . . Heartwarming and very funny--one of Tyler's best yet." -- People (book of the week) "Anne Tyler could make even quarantined lives feel expansive and lovely . . . Though we have stripped our daily rituals down to their bare essentials, we remain as big and as loving and as scared and as frustratingly human as we were before the world outside screeched to a halt. Redhead by the Side of the Road is a delicate and moving reminder of this, and proves Tyler's voice remains as vital as ever." -- Vanity Fair "Tyler's novels are always worth scooping up--but especially this gently amusing soother, right now, when all of our cherished routines have been disrupted." -- NPR "There's always good reason to celebrate a new Anne Tyler novel, and Redhead by the Side of the Road warrants popping open the champagne . . . Who else can make words sparkle with humor and tenderness in quite this way? . . . Hilarious and poignant . . . Shows the author at the top of her form." -- Boston Globe "Anne Tyler may, in the end, prove to be one of the most influential novelists of her generation . . . Her books are so irresistibly readable that it's startling to realise what technical marvels they often are." -- Daily Telegraph "If, in December, we might sing, 'We need a little Christmas right this very minute,' in pandemic panic we might warble that we need or could surely use a little Anne Tyler." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "It moves so quickly and seamlessly . . . Poignant." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "Reading Anne Tyler is always pure pleasure, and Redhead by the Side of the Road is the author at her best. This joyful book is a powerful reminder of how much we need human connection." -- BookPage (starred) "Another gem from Anne Tyler . . . This is her best novel in some time . . . Tyler has won so many plaudits over the past 50 odd years that it's hard to think of new superlatives to add . . . Tyler's ability to make you care about her characters is amazing, and never more so than here." -- Observer (UK) "Tyler's warmly comedic, quickly read tale, a perfect stress antidote, will delight her fans and provides an excellent 'first' for readers new to this master of subtle and sublime brilliance . . . Perfectly modulated, instantly enmeshing, heartrending, funny, and redemptive." -- Booklist "A fully realised world full of dry humour . . . Each character is deftly drawn in a few lines." -- The Times (UK) "A brilliantly detailed, tender depiction of one man's regrettable way of living . . . Brings plenty of funny, relatable scenarios." -- Irish Times "There's warmth, wisdom, and a wealth of brilliantly caught characters in Anne Tyler's cheering new novel ." -- Sunday Times (UK) "Characteristically tender . . . Suffused with feeling and very moving." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred), "Not a word is wasted in this slim, beautiful novel. Reading Anne Tyler is always pure pleasure, and Redhead by the Side of the Road is the author at her best. This joyful book is a powerful reminder of how much we need human connection." --Amy Scribner, BookPage (starred) "Tyler's warmly comedic, quickly read tale, a perfect stress antidote, will delight her fans and provides an excellent 'first' for readers new to this master of subtle and sublime brilliance . . . If Tyler's large-cast, many-faceted novels are symphonies, this portrait of a man imprisoned by his routines is a concerto . . . Radiantly polished and emotionally intricate . . . Tyler's perfectly modulated, instantly enmeshing, heartrending, funny, and redemptive tale sweetly dramatizes the absurdities of flawed perception and the risks of rigidity." --Donna Seaman, Booklist "Characteristically tender . . . Suffused with feeling and very moving." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred), "Tyler's warmly comedic, quickly read tale, a perfect stress antidote, will delight her fans and provides an excellent 'first' for readers new to this master of subtle and sublime brilliance . . .

Her piercing omniscience is on full, enthralling display here." -- Vanity Fair "Reading Anne Tyler is always pure pleasure, and Redhead by the Side of the Road is the author at her best.
