Sue Townsend....
After some 40 years on the throne of England to be rehoused on a council estate in the Midlands comes as something of a shock to the Queen. In fact it is a nightmare.
But when the Peoples republican Party achieves an unexpected election victory- thanks to the subliminal brainwashing of the electorate by disaffected television techs- their first act in government is to order the royal family to vacate Buckingham Palace and move into Hell Close. As the Aubusson rugs are cut to size and the odd salvaged Titian waits to be mounted on the anaglypta walls, the Royals gird themselves for their new life living next door to the working class.
Very very funny book....9/10
