    Very funny and (almost) stranger than Alexei's fiction....Alexei knew he was doomed to be different the day he was taken to see Sergei Eisentein's Alexander Nevsky instead of Walt Disney's Bambi. Born on the day that egg rationing came to an end, Alexei grew up with his parents and the Soviet Weekly. Each year they holidayed in Eastern Europe, where they were shown round locomotive factories and the sites of Nazi atrocities.

    Story

    A most entertaining and amusing autobiography. My how I laughed. My children went without food, waiting as I accidentally spat on the table with glee at what should have been tea time and the neighbours stared in the window (thank the lord for noise reduction headphones)

    Performed by the author and five of Britain's leading actresses, Alan Bennett's tales are full of quirky, insightful detail that bring the characters vividly to life. From Julie Walters' portrayal of an actress seeking fame to Anna Massey's alcoholic vicar's wife, these individuals are linked by their self-delusion, desperation, and vulnerability.

    Just fabulous. A required audio book staple which should be in everyone's collection. Mr Bennett brings people into my sitting room.
