Notes From the Sofa Summary

Notes From the Sofa by Raymond Briggs

From Raymond Briggs, the beloved and bestselling author of The Snowman, comes his first book in a decade, now in an updated edition with new columns and illustrations.

Notes from the Sofa is a beautifully illustrated compilation of reflections on life and what it means to get older. Raymond dips into his past to remind us of scrumping apples, National Service, party lines on telephones, the torment of cinema organs and the endless obsession with laxatives, alongside his take on the absurdities of the modern world.

This collection gives us warm and memorable sketches of Raymond's life now and reminds us why he is one of our best-loved storytellers.
