In Father  Father  Burning Bright he writes with tragicomic insight about a son's vigil at his father's deathbed where their lifelong battle continues to the end. The Laying on of Hands, a brilliantly funny satire, describes a society memorial service for a rather special masseur who died tragically young; and in Miss Fozzard Finds her Feet, a lonely, unmarried department store clerk discovers there's more to life than looking after her brother through her only indulgence, her podiatrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Bennett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.04h x 5.04w x 0.47d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312422257\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2003 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlan Bennett\u003c\/b\u003e is a renowned playwright and essayist, whose screenplay for \u003ci\u003eThe Madness of King George\u003c\/i\u003e was nominated for an Academy Award.
