Alan Bennett's "The Uncommon Reader" is a delightfully acerbic manifesto which is simulataneously touching and thought-provoking.
Her Majesty's discovery of the joy of reading represents a moving homage to the power of the printed word, as well as a subversive threat to the upholders of "la pensée unique".
Great company for a Sunday afternoon.
