About the Author Alan Bennett has been one of Englands leading dramatists since the success of Beyond the Fringe in the 1960s. His work includes the Talking Heads television series, and the stage plays Forty Years On, The Lady in the Van, A Question of Attribution, and The Madness of King George III. His recent play, The History Boys (now a major motion picture), won six Tony Awards, including best play, in 2006. In the same year his memoir, Untold Stories, was a number-one bestseller in the United Kingdom. Bringing together the hilarious, revealing, and lucidly intelligent writing of one of Englands best known literary figures, Writing Home includes the journalism, book and theater reviews, and diaries of Alan Bennett, as well as The Lady in the Van, his unforgettable account of Miss Shepherd, a London eccentric who lived in a van in Bennetts garden for more than twenty years.

A chronicle of one of the most important literary careers of the twentieth century, Writing Home is a classic history of a life in letters.
