Description

Friday Night Dinner and Timewaster Letters creator Robert Popper's new book features brilliantly funny letters from Britain's oldest letter writer.

'Ridiculous, hilarious and sweet' - GREG DAVIES

'One of Britain's great comedy minds is at it again' - AISLING BEA

'I laughed till I cried' - DAISY MAY COOPER

'I howled with laughter' - MATT LUCAS

At 104 years of age, Mrs. Elsie Drake of Granville Gardens, London, is the sixth oldest woman in Britain. But fed up with sitting in her armchair all day, Elsie is ready for new adventures. Armed with a computer she can barely operate, she fires off dozens of letters to everyone from the Prime Minister to Greggs Bakeries, seeking assistance.

Whether offering her services as the new Arsenal football mascot dressed as a giant hare or sending Sainsbury's a load of meat, no one can escape the clutches of Elsie Drake. Gloriously funny and ridiculously silly, The Elsie Drake Letters is also a testament to the wonderful kindness and good humour of the British public. Just wait till you read the replies...

'Hilarious and heartwarming - this book is a growth hormone for happiness' - RICHARD AYOADE

'When Robert Popper dies, he should leave his brain to scientists so that they can work out how someone could have written a book so funny.' - KATY WIX

'Spending time in the company of Elsie Drake is an achingly funny way to restore your faith in humanity' - SIMON PEGG
