Untold Stories

Product Information

With the sudden descent of his mother into depression and, later, dementia, a long-held family secret is uncovered in this moving and at times irresistibly funny work of autobiography by one of our best-loved English writers. Alan Bennett's third collection of prose 'Keeping On Keeping On' follows in the footsteps of the phenomenally successful 'Writing Home' and 'Untold Stories', each published 10 years apart. Here, at last, is the astonishing sequel to Alan Bennett's classic Writing Home, in a beautiful hardback edition. Bennett, as always, is both amusing and poignant, whether he's discussing his modest childhood or his work with figures such as Maggie Smith, Thora Hird and John Gielgud. Format: HardcoverYear published: 2009Pages: 242Sub-genre: Autobiography.   In a good dust jacket, with a tear near the top of the spine and some bruising to the edges.
