The MUM Book Discussion group will next meet on Friday, June 26. Our title is The Correspondent by Virginia Evans. Here is a brief summary:
"Sybil is seventy-three years old, in the winter of her life. Sybil has always made sense of the world through writing letters and through this epistolary novel we see how she comes to terms with her past and present and learns forgiveness." (publisher)
Here is where you can find the book:
- There are copies available from Miami, OhioLINK, and SearchOhio, all searchable and requestable from the Miami University Libraries Search catalog. You may also access SearchOhio through your local public library.
- Amazon has the hardcover, paperback, and Kindle available, and Bookshop.org has links to purchase the title from independent booksellers.
We will meet at 11:30 am on the 26th both in Room 123 in the Library and on Zoom. Join the Zoom here!
