An ordinary lifeits sharp pains and unexpected joys, its bursts of clarity and moments of confusionlived by an ordinary, but unforgettable woman: this is the subject of Someone, Alice McDermott's extraordinary New York Times bestselling novel.We first glimpse Marie Commeford as a child: a girl in thick glasses observing her preDepression world from a Brooklyn stoop. Through her first heartbreak and eventual marriage; her delicate brother's brief stint as a Catholic priest and his emotional breakdown; her career as a funeral director's 'consoling angel'; the deaths of her parents and the births of her childrenwe follow Marie through the changing world of the twentieth century and her IrishAmerican enclave. Rendered with remarkable empathy and insight, Someone is a novel that speaks of life as it is daily lived, with passion and heartbreak, a crowning achievement of one of the finest American writers at work today.
