Omschrijving
Presents a bittersweet comic diary of the years in which a lethally dotty and very smelly old bat parked her unroadworthy vehicle in author's Camden garden, thereby providing him with a roughly equal amount of journalistic copy and guilty landlordly irritation.
ALAN BENNETT has been one of our leading dramatists since the success of Beyond the Fringe in the 1960s. His television series Talking Heads has become a modern-day classic, as have many of his works for stage including Forty Years On, The Lady in the Van, A Question of Attribution, The Madness of George III (together with the Oscar-nominated screenplay The Madness of King George), and The History Boys. His collection of prose, Untold Stories, won the PEN/Ackerley Prize for autobiography, 2006. The Uncommon Reader was published in 2007 and Smut was published in 2011.
