Book Discussion : Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by Helen Simonson

Plan on traveling to Edgecombe St. Mary, a small village in the English countryside filled with rolling hills, thatched cottages, and a cast of characters both hilariously original and as familiar as the members of your own family. Among them is Major Ernest Pettigrew (retired) who is wry, courtly, opinionated, and completely endearing. An unexpected friendship with a Pakistani shopkeeper who shares his love of literature begs the question 'can a provincial village accept this norm-breaking friendship'?
