Anne TYLER

PULITZER PRIZE-winning novelist Anne Tyler is a hard habit to break once you get hooked on her stories. She has come a long way since her first novel, If Morning Ever Comes, in 1964. However, I only started reading her later. I remember first reading Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant 25 years ago. This novel of hers was shortlisted for the 1982 National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction. And, of course, she got the 1989 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for Breathing Lessons (1988).
