An Evening with Elinor Lipman


Recommended Posts

Village Books are delighted to welcome Elinor Lipman, author of The Inn at Lake Devine, Then She Found Me and The Family Man to Dulwich.


The Washington Post described Elinor as ?an enchanting, infinitely witty yet serious, exceptionally intelligent, wholly original, and Austen-like stylist?


Elinor will be discussing her new book Good Riddance: One woman?s trash becomes another woman?s treasure, with deliriously entertaining results? In a fit of decluttering, Daphne Maritch throws away the heavily annotated high street yearbook she inherited from her mother. But when it?s found in the recycling bin by a busybody neighbour turned documentary filmmaker, its mysteries ? not to mention those of her own family ? take on a whole new urgency, and Daphne finds herself entangled in a series of events both poignant and absurd.


Elinor Lipman is the award-winning author of eleven novels, including The View from Penthouse B and The Inn at Lake Devine; one essay collection, I Can?t Complain; and Tweet Land of Liberty. She lives in New York City.


Tuesday 17th March, 7.30pm

Bell House, 27 College Rd, Dulwich, London, SE21 7BG

Tickets ?10 (includes a glass of wine)

    • 🤣 at the puns. Seriously though, thank you for not assuming he must be lost just because he followed you a long way. Thank you for posting on here rather than  taking him back to your house!
    • I'm disgusted and outraged...at the Telegraph. I'd much rather have sex parties happening around the corner than have some of the Telegraph's oligarch owners infesting the neighbourhood. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2025/may/14/foreign-states-limited-to-15-stake-in-uk-newspapers-amid-telegraph-uncertainty
    • Apparently this forum  is " brimming with disgust and outrage" 🤣 I thought that was The  Telegraph 🤣
    • This is fascinating about how Lambeth are thought to be getting around the High Court ruling to allow the Brockwell events to proceed.....seems a risky legal strategy if true...and not sure I would want to be the council planning legal person who signs this off.....   https://www.brixtonbuzz.com/2025/05/protect-brockwell-park-fires-fresh-warning-as-lambeth-council-doubles-down-on-disputed-festival-plan/ Worth reading the whole piece for context but this section stands out: Despite this, Brockwell Live has submitted a new certificate application — one which they admit still covers more than 28 days, and is therefore not materially different from the version the court already struck down. It looks like instead of going to the Court of Appeal — where they’d surely lose — Brockwell Live is now asking Lambeth Planning to second-guess the High Court and decide whether the judge was right. Despite the clarity of the court’s decision, Lambeth appears to be doubling down, relying on a legal interpretation that’s already been rejected by a judge — and now asking its own planning department to endorse a position the judiciary has ruled unlawful.
