The Diary and Memoirs of an Incarcerated Granny by Angela Lister
'The Diary and Memoirs of an Incarcerated Granny' is a frank 'lockdown diary' full of anecdotes, musings, reminiscences and irreverent commentary. Author Angela Lister has looked at an unprecedented year through the prism of lockdown, to produce a remarkable book that is both a diary and an autobiography. She eloquently contrasts her incarceration at home during lockdown with memories of spending five years living in the Dordogne with her late husband, James. She combines charm, warmth and a mischievous sense of humour in this candid and entertaining read. The author's witty and vibrant pen covers subjects such as downsizing, family, friendships, dogs called Poppy and Violet, food, politics and Zoom. 'The Diary and Memoirs of an Incarcerated Granny' is a cathartic romp through the seasons of a unique year. In Angela's own words, it's necessary to ensure that 'positive thoughts abound'.
Angela Lister has been a widow since 2016. For twenty-five years she ran the family hotel business in South Yorkshire with her husband James, with whom she later lived in the Dordogne for five years. She is now retired and has two children, two step-children and six grandchildren. Angela is a qualified veterinary nurse, and worked at Sheffield University undertaking research into hip replacements for two years. Nowadays she likes lunching with her friends and family, and writing and reading.
