A perfect palatable novella at just 176 pages, Three Days in June offers a searingly sharp gaze into the everyday minutiae of normal people. Gail is in her early 60s, about to lose her job, and also about to attend her only daughter’s wedding. This book covers three days (in June): the day before, of and after said wedding. Written in an incredibly literary tone full of humanness and sincerity, Tyler showcases the art of mundane storytelling here, deftly touching on the little things that build and shape us into our later years. Gail is confident, funny, insecure, grumpy, caring, uncaring, and she’s all of us, really. This is a beautifully human novella told with humour, care and wit – nothing groundbreaking, but perhaps you need that as much as I did?
