Alan Bennett
Writing Home is the first of four wonderfully entertaining collections of Alan Bennett's prose. It has been followed by Untold Stories, Keeping On Keeping On and, most recently, the Sunday Times bestseller, Enough Said.
This audiobook is read by Alex Jennings, who played Alan Bennett himself in the film of The Lady in the Van, opposite Maggie Smith, and in the autobiographical plays Hymn and Cocktail Sticks, onstage at the National Theatre . He is also the narrator of the audiobook of Enough Said, and numerous other audiobooks including Edward St Aubyn's Patrick Melrose novels.
Bringing together Alan Bennett's diaries for 1980-1995 and the journal he kept during the production of Forty Years On starring John Gielgud, the book also includes accounts of his many television plays, the introduction to his Oscar-nominated screenplay for The Madness of King George and, at its heart, The Lady in the Van, the true account of Miss Mary Shepherd, a homeless tramp who took up residence in Bennett's garden and stayed for fifteen years. From his now-legendary address at Russell Harty's memorial service to recollections of growing up in Leeds, Writing Home gives us an unforgettable portrait of one of England's leading playwrights.
