Join the Better Off Read Book Club at the Main Library for a discussion of *Mailman*, which follows Steve Grant—fifty, laid off in March 2020, and battling cancer—as he takes a rural mail route in his Appalachian hometown. There, he becomes the lifeline for isolated residents, hauling everything from chicken feed to replica swords across creeks and mountains. It’s a sharp, human story about work, community, and survival, perfect for a lively group chat.
