Description:
"Life in a city can be atomizing, isolating. And it certainly is for William G. and Neaera H., the strangers at the center of Russell Hobans surprisingly heartwarming novel Turtle Diary. William, a clerk at a used-book store, lives in a rooming house after a divorce that has left him without home or family. Neaera is a successful writer of childrens books, who, in her own estimation, "looks like the sort of spinster who doesnt keep cats and is not a vegetarian. Looks...like a mans woman who hasnt got a man." Entirely unknown to each other, they are both drawn to the turtle tank at the London zoo with "minds full of turtle thoughts," wondering how the turtles might be freed. And then comes the day when Neaera walks into Williams bookstore, and together they form an unlikely partnership to make what seemed a crazy dream become a reality"--
