Recensori in anteprima

When her corgis stray into a mobile library parked near Buckingham Palace, the Queen of England feels duty-bound to borrow a book. Discovering the joy of reading widely (from J. R. Ackerley, Jean Genet, and Ivy Compton-Burnett to the classics) and intelligently, she finds that her view of the world changes dramatically. From one of England’s most celebrated writers, the author of the award-winning The History Boys, a funny and superbly observed novella about the subversive power of reading.
