Henry persönlich by Stewart O'Nan

4.0

This book is wonderful in its ordinary-ness. Henry is a retired married father of older children. His 75th birthday is right the corner. He tinkers in his house and goes to Home Depot-a lot. He is concerned about his health, lapses in memory and balance, and tries not to worry his wife. He worries about his kids and money. He and his wife Emily are involved in their community.
We can relate to Henry and probably know someone like him.
I enjoyed this quiet and charming novel. Next on my list is a book about Henry's wife Emily...
