Description
Raymond Briggs contemplates old age and death in his customary grumpy pose, illustrated with his inimitable pencil drawings. This collection of short pieces covers a range of themes, from humorous observations about life's mundane moments to more melancholic reflections on loss and memory. The book is a personal and introspective work, with Briggs reminiscing about his schooldays, wartime evacuations, and his childhood home in Sussex. He also shares stories about his family, including his wife and grandchildren, and pokes fun at his own artistic past. The result is a unique and engaging portrait of one man's life, full of wit and warmth.
