Very short essay, diary entries of the effect of the pandemic on Alan Bennett. Annoyed that he assumed I knew who his partner was, whom her referred to a few times, but occasionally funny and had things I could relate to. Not really worth reading on its own, I assume it will be reprinted as part of a larger volume of work. ( ) Another lovely record of thoughts and events from Alan Bennett (March 2020 to March 2021 with an autumn 2021 epilogue), such as: 28 April [2020] The most one can hope from a reader is that he or she should think: ‘Here is somebody who knows what it is like to be me.' It's not what E. M. Forster meant by ‘only connect', but it's what I mean. These days ‘only connect' means bumping elbows. Wonderful for Bennett to share these snippets with us, some nostalgic, some humorous, interesting (nosy) to learn what he is reading, only a shame that it is all too brief. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
"Reflections on Covid and confinement from the unparalleled pen of Alan Bennett. 4 March. HMQ pictured in the paper at an investiture wearing gloves, presumably as a precaution against Coronavirus. But not just gloves; these are almost gauntlets. I hope they're not the thin end of a precautionary wedge lest Her Majesty end up swathed in protective get-up such as is worn at the average crime scene. 20 March. With Rupert now working from home my life is much easier, as I get regular cups of tea and a lovely hot lunch. A year in and out of lockdown as experienced by Alan Bennett. Alan Bennett's diary takes us from the filming of Talking Heads and memories of doomed childhood fishing expeditions, to thoughts on Boris Johnson, stair lifts, junk shops of old, having a haircut and encounters on the local park bench"--Publisher's description.
