Description

Now a major motion picture starring Maggie Smith, Alan Bennett's famous and heartwarming story The Lady in the Van, and more of Bennett's classic short-form work Alan Bennett has long been one of the world's most revered humorists. From his acclaimed story collection Smut to his hilarious and sharply observed The Uncommon Reader, Bennett has consistently remained one of literature's most acute observers of Britain and life's many absurdities. In this new collection, drawn from his wide-ranging career, you'll read some of Bennett's finest work, including the title story, the basis for a new feature film starring Maggie Smith. The book also includes the rollicking comic masterpiece The Laying on of Hands and the bittersweet Father! Father! Burning Bright, Bennett's classic tale of the tense relationship between a man and his dying father.
