Publisher's Synopsis
"Sylvia Smith has the gift of making an ordinary life in which nothing much happens an absolutely delicious read" Helen Fielding Sylvia Smith's true story of one year of her life spent in a shared house in east London is simply irresistible. Appleby House is a hugely entertaining volume full of everyday incidents and accidents, talk and scurrilous activity. The story of her housemates, of the kindly landlords, Mr and Mrs Appleby, of the various suitors who come and go, is all set down with great good humour.
