Digging to American by Anne Tyler

tyler.gifThis book explores the theme of being an "outsider" on many different levels. The lives of two families cross paths and change forever as they await the flight bringing their infant daughters from Korea. One family is Iranian and the other is American.

Tyler's characters, including toddlers, young parents and grandparents, are wonderful. Their struggles with identity, intimacy and loss will draw you in.
