Books Over Coffee: Tinkers

Books Over Coffee: Tinkers

A monthly book group where you can meet new people, sip a warm drink, and have great discussions. This month we're reading Tinkers by Paul Harding:

"An old man lies dying. Propped up in his living room and surrounded by his children and grandchildren, George Washington Crosby drifts in and out of consciousness, back to the wonder and pain of his impoverished childhood in Maine. As the clock repairer’s time winds down, his memories intertwine with those of his father, an epileptic, itinerant peddler and his grandfather, a Methodist preacher beset by madness.

At once heartbreaking and life affirming, Tinkers is an elegiac meditation on love, loss, illness, faith, and the fierce beauty of nature." -From the publisher
