Product Description

Review

'The jokes are as good as ever, Keyes' large cast of Irish and American characters fizz and crackle off the page. High quality entertainment' Marie Claire 'It takes real talent to make a reader laugh and cry ... the story will stay with you long after you've read the last page' Heat 'The novel is a rare blend of genres, a richly enjoyable satire and an inspirational tale of one woman's triumph over despair' - Telegraph, Daily 'Keyes writes brilliantly, as always, about love, grief, jealousy and friendship' Daily Mail


Product Description

'I had to go back to New York and try to find him. There was a chance he mightn't be there but I had to give it a go because there was one thing I was certain of: he wasn't here.' Anna Walsh is officially a wreck. She's covered in bandages and she's lying in her parents' Good Front Room dreaming of leaving Dublin and getting back to New York, to her friends, to the most fabulous job in the world(t) - and most of all, back to her husband, Aiden. But her family have other ideas (not to mention the usual problems that beset the Walsh sisters). And Aiden, for some reason, seems unwilling to get in touch. What happened to Anna to send her so far from all that she loves? And what happened to her marriage that her husband won't talk to her?

5.0 out of 5 stars Marian Does it Again, 8 Mar 2006
By S. Bowie (Wetherby, W Yorks United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Anybody Out There? (Hardcover)
It was with great surprise and delight that I spotted this, on 19th February in Leeds Bradford Airport; the best holiday read one could wish for.
Marian is the queen of chick lit and in my opinion her best novels are about the Walsh family. Anybody Out There? concerns Anna, the fourth daughter and includes a mini, e mail plot involving Helen, the youngest and most eccentric.For the first time since Rachel's Holiday we meet all the girls together again and our curiosity about their lives is well satisfied. Mammy Walsh continues to be absolutely barking and serves up some hysterical one liners in her attempts to steamroller a family wedding. Marian deftly steers an emotional roller coaster
of a plot to a very satisfying conclusion.
It's like a big box of irresisitible chocolates; you gobble it all up as fast as you can then wish you hadn't finished it so quickly!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Walsh sister's story, 8 Mar 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Anybody Out There? (Hardcover)
In this book, we find out more about Anna, the sister portrayed as a dreamy space cadet in the other books. In this one, she's grown up and not quite the flake she's made out to be. This book deals beautifully with grief and loss, but isn't at all depressing. Very affecting, one of Marian's best. Thorougly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fantastic read from Keyes, 7 April 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Anybody Out There? (Hardcover)
I was thrilled to find Anybody Out There on sale the other day- I love Marian Keyes and the books about the Walsh sisters are, in my opinion, her best. This book had me crying twice and laughing often; she manages to convey a terrible sense of loss whilst keeping the book humerous and light- I would definately recommend it. Just waiting for the 'Helen' installment of the Walsh saga now!
