Parnassus on Wheels
by Christopher Morley
“It's never too late to trade the quiet of a farm for the adventure of the open road and a wagon full of stories.”
Bored with farm life and living in her brother's shadow, Helen McGill impulsively buys a horse-drawn caravan and sets off on a whimsical journey across the New England countryside. This spirited classic follows a middle-aged woman rediscovering her independence one village—and one book—at a time.
