The Interuption Of Everything
(Teri McMillan)
Teri McMillan successfully captures the attention of the reader and essence of the common woman with her sassy vernacular and quick witted humor. ?The Interruption of Everything? is a riveting novel about Marilyn Grimes, a middle aged woman facing menopause and the possible demise of her twenty three year marriage. True to McMillan?s style this story does not have the typical fairy tale happy ending. The main focus of this story is geared toward the issues women face in marriage and motherhood, with a unique twist of pessimistic yet light humor. With McMillan?s winning combination of well placed one liners and occasional over the top yet interesting banter this book is sure to keep you coming back for more. What is even more inspirational is Marilyn?s complete transformation from garden variety bored and lonely housewife to an independent woman with a new direction. What makes this book unique is McMillan?s ability to reach women of all ages through Marilyn?s experiences. Every woman can relate to Marilyn?s pain as she discovers her husband of twenty three years is having an affair and wants to leave her ?to find himself?. Marilyn struggles to find independence after giving up her dreams to raise a family, so that her husband Leon could pursue his dreams. She now struggles with finding her own identity outside of her family. With an interfering mother in law (Authurine) and a failing marriage Marilyn still manages to master the art of being the perfect wife, mother, and daughter while gracefully handling an unexpected twist in the plot that changes her world forever. With the help of her friends and a surprise mystery character from her past she emerges a more vibrant woman, fully capable of taking on all the disappointments and surprises that life seems to throw her way.
