The Librarian
In 1958, Sylvia Blackwell, a recent graduate of one of the new post-war library schools, takes a job as a children's librarian in a dilapidated library in the village of East Mole.
Her mission is to awaken the children of East Mole's enthusiasm for reading. But Sylvia's love affair with the married village doctor and her friendship with his precocious daughter, the neighbor's son and the landlady's neglected granddaughter inflame the community's prejudices, threatening her job and the very existence of the library, with dramatic consequences for everyone.
The Librarian is a moving testament to the joy of reading and the power of books to change and inspire us all.
