The man who dropped the Le Creuset on his toe and other bourgeois mishaps
Matthew, Christopher, 1939-2013
Books
The path trodden by the middle-aged middle classes in Britain, smooth though it may appear to the less privileged, is in reality a peculiarly dangerous one, dogged by its own set of terrors, pitfalls and opportunities for social humiliation. In this book Christopher Matthew follows up the huge success of 'Now We Are Sixty' with a collection of mordant, witty, cautionary verses on the subject of the British bourgeoisie and its foibles and failings.
