Sipsworth: An Evening with Simon Van Booy

The Book Stall is delighted to host an evening with bestselling author Simon Van Booy to discuss Sipsworth, his enchanting novel about second chances. Sipsworth is a reminder that there is always reason for hope. No matter what we have planned for ourselves, sometimes life has plans of its own. With profound compassion, Simon Van Booy illuminates not only a deep friendship forged between two lonely creatures, but the reverberations of goodness that ripple out from that unique bond.
