Aboard a plane bound for Australia, two strangers find themselves confessing their fears and laughing each other into courage; Nick and Janet meet at the Sydney Fish Markets...everything seems perfect, what could go wrong?; and Ethel is assured by her family that this year the usual massive Christmas organisation won't be entirely up to her, that this year it will be different. Warm, humorous, sad and happy, this delightful Christmas collection set in Australia and around the world shows Maeve Binchy weaving her story-telling magic. Families, friends, lovers and the lonely---Binchy draws us into their lives with wisdom and generousity. After reading This Year It Will Be Different, you'll want to visit them all over again.
