Travels With My Aunt

200. Travels With My Aunt by Graham Greene
Who in the world could use a big shake more than the stodgy Henry Pulling? Henry never married and spent his life locked up behind the safe and tedious walls of a bank. Then, at his mother’s funeral, Henry met his Aunt Augusta and he was sent spinning out into a world he never knew existed.
Graham Greene is that Graham Greene, he of The Power and the Glory and Our Man in Havana and The Quiet American. So Travels With My Aunt is a totally different Graham Greene. Every chapter had me. I now have a new gloriously inspiring role model for my last years.

Hi Debbie —
This is “Little” Marjie Lawrence, not the former matriarch of Johnson St. Through pure serendipity, I stumbled on your blog and have really enjoyed reading it. Some great book suggestions! Now, if only I could get my kids grown so I’d actually have the time to read … Marjie
