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)

    • I'd take some stool samples, keep them in the fridge, book a GPs appointment, and ask for them to be analysed. Kids are sick from time to time.  We all were.  We all are occasionally.  Unless there is a serious outbreak of a bug that can potentially hospitalise a lot of people, then public health will not get involved. For your own benefit you can always visit the cafe and check out their scores on the doors food safety rating and if they are not displaying one, question why. A few years ago there was a large e coli outbreak at the Glastonbury festival, cows graze the land and some festival goers were not being too hygienic.  A reminder to us all to wash our hands etc.  with COVID this should be second nature   
    • Probably won't be the actual ice cream, but I tend to avoid actual cones where they are handled before giving to customer....that's in general though  
    • Anyone know what the V7 local is turning into? Saw some guys painting it a teal colour last night which made me think it’s probably turning into another Truepennys haha - hopefully something more interesting
    • I agree with Sue here, but it is reasonable to raise a concern - there have been incidents of mass poisoning (from restaurants and cafes, supermarkets and food sellers such as butchers and fishmongers) where early warning (or a lack of it) has had a significant impact. But where this concern has been reasonably raised, but then discovered to be likely misplaced, it is a good thing to obfuscate the retailer identity. Of course, by removing the specificity, this might get later readers to worry that other ice-cream outlets locally were being implicated! Bit of a lose-lose situation really!
