The first ever collection in paperback of Alan Bennett's fiction - published in the year when he has been given the British Book Lifetime Achievement Award.

Here are Alan Bennett's hugely admired, triumphantly reviewed and bestselling novellas, brought together in one book for the first time:

'Father! Father! Burning Bright', the savage satire on a dying man's family reaction as he still asserts control over them from the hospital bed.

'The Clothes They Stood Up In', has sold over 200,000 copies as a small novella and was 14 weeks in the Bestseller lists. It is the painful story of what happens to an elderly couple when their flat is stripped completely bare.

'The Laying On Of Hands', a memorial service for a masseur to the famous that goes horribly wrong.

Like everything Alan Bennett does, these stories are playful, witty and painfully observant of ordinary people's foibles. And they all have a brilliant and surprising twist; are immensely funny and profoundly moral.
