Now he brings his unique brand of very British fantasia to a subject close to all our hearts: grandmothers. The first volume of this very special twinset offers a collection of characterful photographs of grannies and the things nearest to each of them, arranged alphabetically and accompanied by short, gently humorous verses by Kit Hesketh-Harvey. The second volume is delightfully populated with Lawrence Mynotts drawings of lively old ladies. Spirited, stylish, sweethere are granny archetypes of every stripe. Youll find Lucinda, whose hat addiction shows no sign of waning, and Kitty, whose knitting skills are second to none. You might even meet the Queenthe most famous British granny of all". ... The New York Times blurbed: "With its array of octogenarian subjects clad in nubby cardigans, sensible shoes, croc handbags and whimsical hats not to mention a still life of fake teeth and the pattern from a plastic polka-dotted rain bonnet used as the books endpaper The Granny Alphabet takes a droll view on aging".
