Описание: From the bestselling author of the beloved book "Must Love Dogs," later made into a film starring John Cusack and Diane Lane, comes a new novel about what happens when we think everything is falling apart, and discover that we can pick up the pieces after all. Years ago, Melanie followed her husband, Kurt, from the New England beach town where their two young sons were thriving to the suburbs of Atlanta. She s carved out a life as a successful metal sculptor, but when Kurt leaves her for another woman, having the tools to cut up their marriage bed is small consolation. She s old enough to know that high school reunions are often a big disappointment, but when her best friend makes her buy a ticket and an old flame gets in touch to see if she ll be going, she fantasizes that returning to her past might help her find her future until her highway driving phobia resurfaces and threatens to hold her back from the adventure of a lifetime. "Time Flies" is an epic trip filled with fun, heartbreak, and friendship that explores what it takes to conquer your worst fears so you can start living your future."
