From the New York Times
bestselling author of Circle of Friends, The Glass Lake, and Evening
Class comes a stunning collection of fifteen Christmas stories filled
with Maeve Binchy's trademark wit, charm, and sheer storytelling genius.
In A Typical Irish Christmas, a grieving widower heads for a holiday in
Ireland and finds an unexpected destination not just for himself, but
for a father and daughter in crisis. . . . In Pulling Together, a
teacher not yet out of her twenties sees her affair with a married man
at a turning point as Christmas Eve approaches. . . . And in the title
story, This Year It Will Be Different, a woman with a complacent husband
and grown children enters a season that will forever alter her life,
and theirs. . .
From Goodreads.
This was quite interesting, maybe not full of Christmas cheer but most of the stories contained some kind of reflection on life. I liked it even though I felt most of the stories involved cheating husbands, divorces and unhappy people.
