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\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0312422253\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312422257\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2003 pg. 36","brand":"Alan Bennett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981560611071,"sku":"9780312422257","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9d1a99d1-720b-40ff-88d7-877d0f8e0ea2.jpg?v=1683256285","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-laying-on-of-hands-alan-bennett-9780312422257","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
