Mr Scobie's Riddle by Elizabeth Jolley
After an unplanned admission to a nursing home, Mr. Scobie must protect himself and his dreams from the soul-killing proprietress, Matron Price. Playing Brahms and reciting Wordsworth is not enough. Yet his very simple riddle and its ordinary answer may change the institution forever. Can a voice calling for dignity be heard? A satire of great verve and acerbity (New York Times Book Review), comparable to One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.| SKU | Unavailable |
