Weed Memorial & Hollander Branch Book Discussion via Zoom: Sipsworth by Simon Van Booy

Sipsworth by Simon Van Booy

Helen Cartwright returns to the English village of her childhood after living abroad for 60 years. She is ready to die, preferably quickly and with no fuss.

As she retreats into her home, she becomes a creature of routine and habit. Then, one cold autumn night, a chance encounter with an abandoned pet mouse on the street outside her house sets Helen on a surprising journey of friendship.

Sipsworth is a reminder that there can be second chances. No matter what we have planned for ourselves, sometimes the world has plans of its own.
