Steven Appleby's Normal Life - Tapa dura

Steven writes: 'This book is intended as a companion to the BBC Radio 4 series 'Steven Appleby's Normal Life', in which I attempt to set the record straight concerning a small part of my personal history. 'I am not arrogant enough to believe that I am special, or unique. I know that all the events I describe on radio and in this book are happening all over the world to ordinary people, all of the time. It is no joke to be pursued by Death riding a bicycle, or to discover that your children are aliens, so if the same thing happens to you I hope this book is of some comfort. You are not the only one. 'I hereby warrant that everything appearing in this book and on the radio is true.'

Steven Appleby is one of this country's leading cartoonists. His work currently appears regularly in the Guardian, The Times, the Sunday Telegraph, Junior and The Oldie. His thirteenth book, The Encyclopaedia of Personal Problems, has just been published by Bloomsbury.
