Jolly Super

This is author's 5th book in 5 years and her second volume of collected pieces. Since Jolly Super was published in 1970, she has continued to entertain and irritate a wide cross (sometimes very cross) section of the community on a variety of subjects ranging from game shooting to car rallies, from Moscow to New York, and from Christmas cards to a day at the bingo. The articles in this collection appeared in The Sunday Times, and it is in that paper that she has made her name as the scourge of the middle-classes, the deflater of pompous balloons and as the voice of sound common sense laced with sharp wit and great humanity.Enemies she certainly has but her post bag also shows that she has a great many friends and that she helps people to laugh at life in all its aspects.
