This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage is wide-ranging and deeply personal, overflowing with close observation and emotional wisdom. Stretching from her tumultuous childhood, to the gradual loss of her beloved grandmother, from a disastrous marriage to a happy one, from the joy of selling her first book to the excitement of setting up her own bookshop, Patchett shares stories of her youth, her writing, personal travels, life in Nashville and the important friendships she's made along the way with honesty, wit and irresistible warmth.
