When Maggie is thirteen she goes to live with her grandfather, Pop, in Sutton Coldfield. Pop knows everything -he's quiz champion of the Plough and Harrow and his ambition is to appear on Sale of the Century. Maggie knows about the great comedians -Max Wall, Ken Dodd, Tommy Cooper, Eric and Ernie -about country music, and about how her mother died. Pop sings with the poetry of the suburbs and aches with the poignancy of adolescence. Kitty Aldridge has a wonderfully distinctive voice and a deliciously sharp eye for the extraordinariness of ordinary lives.
