Reading Patchett has yet to disappoint me. Having just finished another of her early books, copyrighted in 1997, it was as good as the others, Bonnie, who knows almost everything, said she's Patchett fan...so there you have it. The Magician's Assistant is another study in family systems and contains a doozy of a family secret. There's nothing a like a toxic family secret to make the old family mobile dance. Ann Patchett's ability with a sentence and the creating of sympathetic characters makes reading her work a pleasure.
Yes I recommend it!

A four-year-old child, whose next door
neighbor
was an elderly gentleman, who had recently lost his
wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old
Gentleman's'
yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his mother asked him what he had
said
to the neighbor, the little boy just said, 'Nothing, I just
Helped
him cry.'
