Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
Reviewed in bwl 106 this really is a terrific book, and a first novel by Bonnie Garmus who cleverly makes very wry observations about aspects of life in the 1960's, in an unusual and imaginative story. Don't be put off by the title - it's very readable - funny as well as tragic,  with a surprising (if improbable) ending. I loved all the characters  - especially the wonderful dog!
