Her marriage is stale, her relationship with her son Thomas is limited to text messages—hostile haikus that he sends from university—and she is the primary caregiver for her mother, who is in the early stages of dementia. She has a complicated relationship with her older sister Ariel, with whom she carries on ongoing arguments in her head. Bea laments the loss of momentum she remembers feeling in her thirties, when she and everyone she knew was busy buying houses, having children, and renovating kitchens. Now she is reflecting on her life, worried about her inability to memorize a simple yoga sequence, and about the fact that she enjoys the idea of many things more than the actual things themselves (teaching, reading, sex). When Bea finds that she has both a talent and a passion for picking locks, the sense of anticipation that had been missing from her life returns. Breaking into other people’s houses is something she’s good at: she is a quick study, subtle, discreet, and never greedy. It's a dangerous hobby that makes her feel alive—and so she begins the guilty analysis of other people’s lives, and eventually, her own."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Burglary $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Lock picking $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Gillmor, Don. $t Breaking and entering. $d Windsor, Ontario : Biblioasis, 2023 $z 9781771965248 $z 9781771965248 $w (OCoLC)1350601056 941 $a 2 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240402011807.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231004010439.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5DD53E84627B11EE9D8B625031ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
