I Must Collect Myself: Choice Cuts From a Long Shelf-Life

I Must Collect Myself: Choice Cuts From a Long Shelf-Life

by Maureen Lipman (Author)

Synopsis

Maureen Lipman has the knack of making the everyday supremely entertaining, the ordinary absurd and unexpected. This new collection of pieces sparkles with her inimitable prose and pithy opinions. Encounters in the street, at the hairdresser, in the dressing room, on her travels at home and abroad, indeed wherever she goes, are sharply observed, joyfully and - at times - ruefully recorded. Included too are a selection of brilliant monologues which capture the many voices of Maureen in wonderfully diverse ways.
