Description
In 1987, Miri returns to her hometown to attend a commemoration of the worst year of her life. Thirty-five years earlier, when she was fifteen and in love for the first time, three planes fell from the sky within three months, leaving the community reeling. The plane crashes brought some people closer together and tore others apart; they created myths and unlocked secrets. As Miri navigates the ordinary joys and pains of growing up in extraordinary circumstances, a young journalist makes his name reporting tragedy. Against this backdrop of actual events in the early 1950s, when airline travel was new and exciting, Judy Blume weaves a haunting story of three generations of families, friends, and strangers, whose lives are forever changed. In In the Unlikely Event, Blume explores how life goes on, even in the face of tragedy.
