[4/5]
This is a fun book written about Major Pettigrew in the evening of his life. He struggles with evolving relationships with his son, his community, and his grocer; all with a wonderful witty British outlook. The book has a deeper subtext about the challenges of aging and loss of a spouse. It also touches on the complexity of the British social structure and biases. A fun, quick read.
