The Library Book Club is reading “Walking Across Egypt” by Clyde Edgerton for February.
From Library Journal:Mattie Rigsbee, at 78, is slowing down. She plans her funeral so as not to be a burden; she supports the local Baptist church and entertains herself with hymns at the parlor piano; she tries not to meddle in her children’s lives, though she does wish they’d marry; she longs for grandchildren. Then comes Wesley…Â Â A beautiful story of determination, made more poignant by a Southern small-town setting.
