Sue Townsend, the bestselling author of the Adrian Mole series, returns withThe Woman Who Went to Bed for a Year, a funny and touching novel about what happens when someone stops being the person everyone wants them to be.
Proof, once more, that Townsend is one of the funniest writers around
Townsend's wit is razor-sharp
Laugh-out-loud . . . a teeming world of characters whose foibles and misunderstandings provide glorious amusement. Something deeper and darker than comedy
She fills the pages with turmoil, anger, passion, love and big helpings of wit. It's full of colour and glows with life
Hilarious and totally Townsend. There were parts where I laughed until I cried
Touching and hilarious. Bursting with witty social commentary as well as humour
A funny, poignant look at modern family life
