Bixby Book Club- The Salt Path

May 13 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Calling all readers! The Bixby Book Club meets the second Tuesday of every month at 6pm. We read a variety of books, spanning the genres of contemporary, literary, and historical fiction, as well as non-fiction, biography, and classics. Didn’t read or finish the book? No worries! This is a no-judgement book club.

This meeting will be held in the library’s Community Room, if available, or the Vermont Room.

Plenty of copies of books are available at the circulation desk for all who would like to read one- for those attending book club as well as those reading on their own. They can also be reserved by emailing Martha at Martha.Sanborn@bixbylibrary.org

The book for May is The Salt Path by Raynor Winn.

Book Description:

Just days after Raynor Winn learns that Moth, her husband of 32 years, is terminally ill, their house and farm are taken away, along with their livelihood. With nothing left and little time, they make the brave and impulsive decision to walk the 630 miles of the sea-swept South West coast path, from Somerset to Dorset, through Devon and Cornwall. Carrying only the essentials for survival on their backs, they lie wild in the ancient, weathered landscape of cliffs, sea and sky. Yet through every step, every encounter, and every test along the way, their walk becomes a remarkable and life-affirming journey. Powerfully written and unflinchingly honest, The Salt Path is ultimately a portrayal of home- how it can be lost, rebuilt, and rediscovered in the most unexpected ways.
