Nina Stibbe

After charming the nation with Love, Nina - the collection of letters written to her sister during a five year stint as a nanny in '80s London, surrounded by literary types all new to her - Nina Stibbe returns to London once again, this time under the roof of author Deborah Moggach, with a hilarious diary of her life as a woman now in her 60's. Went to London, Took The Dog sees her wit as sparkling as ever, as she negotiates discarded takeaway on the streets of London, women's health issues amongst her circle of friends, and sharp observations on everything from dating profiles and literary festivals to the obsession with the whereabouts of Keir Starmer's charisma.
