First in a series of six very personal views of the English. In Private Parts Sue Townsend , author of the bestselling Adrian Mole diaries, examines Anglo-Saxon attitudes to bodies - dead or alive. Repressed and buttoned-up? She presents evidence that though they seem less at home in their bodies than other nationalities, the respectable English actually revel in the grotesque. With stories about her own and other English bodies, Sue Townsend offers an intriguing glimpse of our private parts.
