Ejercicios respiratorios es una novela conmovedora y sorprendente de Anne Tyler que narra la historia de Ira y Maggie Moran. Maggie es fantasiosa, entrometida y atolondrada, mientras que Ira es competente, paciente e infalible a su manera. A través de estos personajes, Tyler nos lleva a conocer la vida cotidiana de los Moran, explorando las esperanzas, los proyectos inconclusos, los fracasos de sus hijos y las tormentas que se desatan en el hogar. A pesar de llevar veintiocho años casados y de las discrepancias que los separan, Maggie e Ira siguen queriéndose. La novela está narrada con una inteligente mezcla de ternura y humor, y presenta situaciones absurdas y personajes secundarios que encarnan la mediocridad y la aceptación del fracaso como medio para sobrevivir.
