Description
'Writing Home' is a wonderfully entertaining collection of Alan Bennett's prose writings. Bringing together his diaries for 1980-1995, with reminiscences and reviews, the diary he kept during the production of his very first play, together with hilarious accounts of his many television plays. From his now-legendary address at Russell Harty's memorial service to recollections of growing up in Leeds, 'Writing Home' gives us a unique and unforgettable portrait of one of England's leading playwrights.
