I missed this book club which met at Mindy's in January. We read Patrick DeWitt's The Sisters Brothers. I found this photo of the author and I think that his image reminds me of the brothers! I don't really know what to write about, not having been there for the discussion, but Ed did send me this note:
Hi Cindy- Very sorry to hear about Fred's dad. Next meeting is February 10 here at my house.
The book is The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce. Everyone liked Sisters
Brothers except me. I wasn't convinced by the discussion- it seemed like loosely connectedincidents of violence porn but others saw humor, redemption, odyssey. And Mindy seemedto see the whole thing as a bit of slapstick on Western novels.
So there you have it. I hope Ed doesn't mind that I copied his email on this blog. Will remove if he does!
