1:35Now PlayingAnn Patchett's new novel "Whistler" is the story of Daphne Fuller, a woman in her fifties, reconnecting with a stepfather she hasn't seen since she was nine, Eddie Triplett.
A number of lessons are learned during their reunion, including how age changes relationships and the conversations we have with each other, and the joy that can be found in those maturing relationships.
NPR All Things Considered host Mary Louise Kelly asks the bestselling author whether that's something she's experienced in her own life.
