The Accidental Tourist
Summary
The Accidental Tourist is Anne Tyler's best known and most loved novel. Macon Leary is a travel writer who hates both travel and anything out of the ordinary. He is grounded by loneliness and an unwillingness to compromise his creature comforts when he meets Muriel, a deliciously peculiar dog-obedience trainer who up-ends Macon's insular world--and thrusts him headlong into a remarkable engagement with life.The Accidental Tourist was made into a highly regarded film directed by Lawrence Kasdan and starring William Hurt, Kathleen Turner and Geena Davis.
