May favourites

Every month, I write about three things I really liked as a way to reflect upon the good things. In May 2022, I like the new Kobo Elipsa e-reader, Intimations by Zadie Smith, and It Came from The Glass Curtain! by Adam Paxman.

Daresbury, Cheshire: Lewis Carroll’s birthplace

As any biography of Lewis Carroll will inform you, the author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, the eldest boy and third child of Frances Jane Lutwidge and Charles Dodgson, in the small parsonage of Daresbury (Cheshire) near the towns of Warrington and Runcorn on the 27th of January, 1832. And of course, if you are a Carrollian, you might want to visit his birthplace someday.
