Everyday by the Sun by Dean Faulkner Wells

I feel like I've been in a 100 year sleep like that endured by Rip Van Winkle, and now that I've come out of my trance of reading this book, Every Day by the Sun.

Many in the family come across as vivid and real. I loved the story about the lending library in Oxford, which must be the dullest town in the world.

I would recommend this book as interesting and quite entertaining to a wide range of people. As for me, it provided a memorable trip to the past, which as we know in Mr. Faulkner's words is never the past. Time does go by.

It seems so recently I was playing bridge with Louise (and sometimes Vicki and Dean) on those many wonderful evenings at the "Y" on the Ole Miss campus.
