Winstones Hunting Raven bookshop is pleased to have to attracted the attention of one of the nation's favourite poets. Up in the Attic is the brand-new collection of verse from the Pam Ayres. With the same magic that has enchanted her fans for more than four decades, Pam's new collection is by turns side-splittingly funny, at others so reflective and profound that audiences are moved to tears.

From the horror of playing host in 'The Dinner Party' and complaints about pub tableware in 'Don't Put My Dinner on the Slate!', to the poignant 'Up in the Attic', in which Pam is deluged by memories when on the search for an old document, and the sadness of wartime 'Down The Line', the bookshop promises that this new collection will tickle and move readers in equal measure.

Pam Ayres has been a writer, broadcaster, and entertainer for over 40 years,and has appeared twice on the legendary Desert Island Discs.

Pam performs her solo stage show throughout the UK, and lives in the Cotswolds, where she is an enthusiastic gardener for wildlife.
