Product Description
Untold Stories, Part 3: Written on the Body is both a reflection on Alan Bennett's childhood and schooldays and a meditation on writing in five short extracts. Written on the Body is a sideways look at Bennett's schooldays at Leeds Modern School, and a recollection of the growing pains of puberty. Seeing Stars is a nostalgic view of the movies of the Forties, seen by Bennett and his family in any one of the half-dozen cinemas in their district in Leeds, including the Western, the Clifton, the Picturedrome and the Lyric. Finally, Staring Out of the Window lets us into Bennett's creative process, which apparently consists of a good deal of ... well... staring out of the window.
