Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Dodos Daughter - A Sequel to Dodo: Look inside the book: In the days when it was built, forty years ago, this room of Nadines had been the smoking-room, but since everybody now smoked wherever he or she chose, which was mostly everywhere, just as they breathed or talked wherever they chose, Nadine with her admirable commonsense had argued uselessness of a special smoking-room, for she wanted it very much herself, and her mother had been quite convinced. ...The truth in Ediths criticism was certainly exemplified in the night of which we are speaking, for Hugh did not leave Nadines room, where she had been engaged on the self-analysis given in the last chapter till two oclock, and at that precise moment Dodo, who had gone to bed more than an hour before, woke up and began thinking about herself with uncommon intensity. ...She had, moreover, promised herself to make no attempts at sprightliness or to have her hair dyed, since one of the few classes of women whom she really objected to were those whom she called grizzly kittens, who dabbed at you with their rheumatic old paws, and pretended that they had no need of spectacles, though itPg 39 was quite clear they could not read the very largest print. About E. F. (Edward Frederic) Benson, the Author: The last three novels were serialized by London Weekend Television for the fledgling Channel 4 in 1985-6 under the series title Mapp and Lucia and starring Prunella Scales, Geraldine McEwan and Nigel Hawthorne; the first four have been adapted for BBC Radio 4 by both Aubrey Woods and (most recently) Ned Sherrin; the fifth, Lucias Progress, was adapted for BBC Radio 4 in 2008 by John Peacock. ...His 1906 short story, The Bus-Conductor, a fatal-crash premonition tale about a person haunted by a hearse driver, has been adapted several times, notably in 1944 (in the film Dead of Night and as an anecdote in Bennett Cerfs Ghost Stories anthology published the same year) and in a 1961 episode of The Twilight Zone.… (altro)
