Telling Tales - Cassette

2 Cassettes
Read by Alan Bennett

Alan Bennett recalls his childhood in a sequence of talks that are funny, touching and told in his unique style - ten childhood snapshots from the master of the monologue. He re-lives family crises, early pieties and the last of a tradition of musical evenings round the piano, all these tales told with that wry observation and ironic understatement that has earned Alan Bennett his place in the forefront of contemporary writing.
