Alan Bennett?s extraordinary ear for dialogue and sharpness of perception have made him a master storyteller. In ?Father! Father! Burning Bright? he writes with tragicomic insight about a son?s vigil at his father?s deathbed where their lifelong battle continues to the end. ?The Laying on of Hands,? a brilliantly funny satire, describes a society memorial service for a rather special masseur who died tragically young; and in ?Miss Fozzard Finds her Feet,? a lonely, unmarried department store clerk discovers there?s more to life than looking after her brother through her only indulgence, her podiatrist.
