Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by Helen Simonson

My book club members enjoyed this novel because of its humor and its take on contemporary social life in England. Major Pettigrew is a widower whose affection for a local Pakistani woman points up the small mindedness of this country club peers. He struggles with this while he deals with a difficult son and an estate matter brought about by the death of his brother. Fun read leading to much discussion of changing social mores.
