Description
The Woman Who Went to Bed for a Year by Sue Townsend is a humorous and touching novel about a woman who stops being the person everyone wants her to be. After seventeen years of feeling stifled, Eva decides to take a drastic step: she climbs into bed and stays there.
As news of her defiance spreads, Eva's life becomes a source of comfort and amusement to those around her. But as she begins to see the world and herself in a new light, Eva must confront the consequences of her actions and the reality of her situation.
This novel, written by Britain's favourite comic author, is a hilarious and poignant look at modern family life, filled with wit, colour and life.
