Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

While not an autobiography, this collection of irresistible pieces by Adrian Mole's creator makes for funny, touching and perceptive reading. The vision of Britain that comes across in these pages is sardonic and joyful, celebrating the eccentricities of the English while maintaining a clear-eyed distance. Sue Townsend takes us into a world of sun-worshippers, writers who don't want to write, garden centre lovers and other peculiarly English characters. Her monthly column for Sainsbury's Magazine covers everything from hosepipe bans and Spanish restaurants to writer's block, and although (inevitably) not all pieces maintain the same level of inspiration, they are never less than diverting.

Reseña del editor:

Enter the world of Susan Lilian Townsend - sun-worshippers, work-shy writers, garden-centre lovers and those in search of a good time all welcome. Over the last decade, Sue Townsend has written a monthly column for Sainsbury's Magazine, which covers everything from hosepipe bans and Spanish restaurants to writer's block and the posh middle-aged woman she once met who'd never heard of Winnie-the-Pooh. Collected together now for the first time, they form a set of pieces from one of Britain's most popular and acclaimed writers that is funny, perceptive and touching.
