Reviews for Dear Granny Smith
Everyone should read this
Everyone, or at least everyone with a social conscience, should read this book. It is a modern day version of the Ragged Trousered Philanthropists, written by one who was there when it happened, as it happened, and who tells his own story in a simple, poignant way. There are no wasted words, and this is a very short book. I read it in a single sitting, not much more than an hour, after the postman delivered it. I bought it after hearing some excerpts from it on Radio 4 and it did not disappoint, as did 'Driving Over Lemons' bought for the same reason. It made me want to stand up and cry out for the rights of the working man, that are being taken away from us daily; it made me want to man the barricades, sell the Socialist Worker (if that organ still exists) it made me want to shake people and say, look what is happening to us! The book maintains that we can still stop the rot - I for one do not think so. But I urge you to read this book, to buy lots and give them away to your friends. It will live in your mind forever. by geraldine firequeen
