We hope you can join us for a very special event hosted by The London Library. Join London Library trustee  Isabelle Dupuy, in discussion with Jennifer Risher, a donor and patron through the International Friends of the London Library, to discuss her memoir ‘We Need to Talk’.

2020 will go down in history for the Covid-19 pandemic but will also be remembered as the year online technology took over our lives – and provided a lifeline. Companies like Amazon, Alphabet and Zoom have become essential to our confined lives and have allowed millions of people to keep working, learning, and shopping while in lockdown or quarantine. Access to WiFi has become the equivalent to having running water in a home. The pandemic has laid bare the inequalities in our society while exacerbating the differences – we have more food banks and tech millionaires in 2021 than ever before.
