Saint Maybe

Saint Maybe by Anne Tyler: This book is about sin, guilt, and penance, or atonement. It's also about burdens becoming joys. When Ian Bedloe tells his brother, Danny, he suspects Danny's wife of cheating, Danny kills himself. Not too much longer, Lucy (Danny's wife) dies of possible suicide. Ian, mostly out of guilt, leaves college to help his parents take care of the three kids left.
