Thursday Evening Book Club to read "The End of the Alphabet"

On May 156, 2008 from 7:00-8:30 p.m. the Thursday Evening Book Club will discuss The End of the Alphabet by C.S. Richardson. Join Marti Livingstone for a lively discussion of the book.

The End of the Alphabet tells the story of 50-year-old London ad executive Ambrose Zephyr who, after being given only one month to live, decides to spend it touring the world from A to Z with his wife Zappora Ashkenazi. The Washington Post says:

"The surprise of this little book is not that it is poignant but that it is delightful: graceful, stylish, humorous, intelligent and lacking even the faintest whiff of sanctimony. Each page shimmers with life at its gentle, everyday best: always unraveling at one end of the alphabet or the other, laced with love."
