Book Chamber | November 16

  • This event has passed.

Tuesday, November 16, 2021 — 6:30 pm

Join us November 16 (the 3rd Tuesday) for our quick-read play – 84, Charing Cross Road – based on the book by Helene Hanff, including:

  • “for whom the bell tolls …” ;
  • 200 ml. each  flour, milk, and eggs; and
  • Jackie Robinson and the team at Ebbets field.

Q: What do these have in common?
A:  Real-life American book-lover (Helene Hanff) and British book-seller (Frank Doel) correspond over years about these topics and more.

Q:  To what do they refer?
A: John Donne, Yorkshire pudding, and the Brooklyn Dodgers.

‘Buyer-seller’ evolve to ‘correspondents’,  segue to ‘friends’, throughout WWII and beyond.  Their letters expressing love of literature proves an apt choice for the Ebell Book Chamber.
