Smut: Two Unseemly Stories

by Alan Bennett - £7.99  Profile Books Ltd (2012)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781846685262 | ISBN 10: 1846685265

Unexpected tales from the master of short fiction.
 
The Shielding of Mrs Forbes
Graham Forbes is a disappointment to his mother who thinks that if he must have a wife, he should have done better. And her own husband would be better if she were mourning him than living with him. But this is Alan Bennett, so no matter the importance of keeping up appearances, what is happening in the bedroom (and in lots of other places too) is altogether more startling, perhaps shocking, and ultimately much more honest to people's predilections.
 
The Greening of Mrs Donaldson
Mrs Donaldson is a conventional middle-class woman beached on the shores of widowhood after a marriage that had been much like many others: happy to begin with, then satisfactory and finally dull. But when she decides to take in two lodgers (a young, broke couple) passions that she never knew existed are aroused, and her mundane life becomes much more stimulating.
