Tottering-by-Gently is a village in the fictional county of North Pimmshire, where Lord and Lady Tottering reside at their ancestral home, Tottering Hall. With cartoons based on Lord and Lady Tottering, their daughter, Serena, and their grandchildren, Freddy and Daisy, Annie Tempest casts her gimlet eye over everything from inter-generational tensions and the differing perspectives of men and women to dieting, field sports, and much more. Her now international following proves that she touches a note of universal truth in her exquisitely detailed and beautifully executed cartoons as she gently laughs with us at the stuff of life. This collection, the seventh in the series, includes cartoons from Country Life.… (meer)

I j received this book as an unexpected gift. It brought a bit of England into Beijing. I have always loved Annie Tempest's work - she is a genius who has managed to encapsulate the English upper-class country folk so accurately and so humourously. Daffy Tottering (Lady Tottering to you!) is simply wonderful. We have so much in common. Her views on gardening, child-rearing, dogs, husbands, enjoying a glass (or three) of wine or a stiff G&T, chime so exactly with my own that I am sure we would get on like a house-on-fire if we ever met.
Last night when the package arrived, I read the whole book in one greedy sitting, and laughed so much that my DH came in to see what had made me semi-hysterical.
Thanks Jude, I love it, love it ,love it. (
