Digging to America by Anne Tyler Book Summary
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the beloved, Pulitzer Prize–winning author comes "an intimate picture of middle-class family life" (The New York Times) that challenges the notion that home is a fixed place, and celebrates the subtle complexities of life on all sides of the American experience.
Two families meet at the Baltimore airport while waiting for their baby girls to arrive from Korea. The Iranian-American Sami and Ziba Yazdan, with Ziba's elegant and reserved mother, Maryam, in tow, wait quietly while brash and all-American Bitsy and Brad Donaldson, plus extended family, are armed with camcorders and a fleet of balloons proclaiming "It's a girl!" After they decide together to throw an impromptu "arrival party," a tradition is born, and so begins a lifelong friendship between the two families.
As they raise their daughters, the Yazdan and Donaldson families grapple with questions of assimilation and identity. When Bitsy's recently widowed father sets his sights on Maryam, she must confront her own idea of what it means to be other, and of who she is and what she values.

Friends in Baltimore. Just discovered Anne Tyler a few weeks ago. So far have read 4 of her books. Actually feel like I have friends in Baltimore!
Embrace the Annoying Characters?. Hard for me to give any Anne Tyler book such a low rating, but this was a complete miss for me. I could not find any characters I liked enough to care about—in fact one of the main characters, “Bitsy” I can’t imagine anyone tolerating for more than a few minutes, let alone for years. As for an insight into the experience of adopting and raising a child from outside the US, I was disappointed by the fractured focus of the novel.
