'It was a beautiful, breezy, yellow-and-green afternoon...' This is the way Abby Whitshank always begins the story of how she fell in love with Red that day in July 1959. Everybody on the porch, everybody relaxed, so restful to be sitting here hearing their mother tell the same tale they have heard so many times before. And yet this gathering is different. Abby and Red are getting older, and decisions must be made about how best to look after them and the house so lovingly built, joint after hand-crafted joint, by their grandfather Junior. Everybody is here, children and grand-children, even Denny, who can usually be relied on only to please himself. All families have their own stories that, passed down over the years, come to define who and what they are. A Spool of Blue Thread tells the Whitshanks', over the course of three generations. And while all families like to believe they are different, the Whitshanks - one of Anne Tyler's finest creations - are so instantly real and recognisable they are alive and well in a family (very) near you.
