What would happen if the Queen became a reader of taste and
discernment rather than of Dick Francis? The answer is a perfect
story. The Uncommon Reader is none other than HM the Queen who
drifts accidentally into reading when her corgis stray into a
mobile library parked at Buckingham Palace. She reads widely ( JR
Ackerley, Jean Genet, Ivy Compton Burnett and the classics) and
intelligently. Her reading naturally changes her world view and her
relationship with people like the oleaginous prime minister and his
repellent advisers. She comes to question the prescribed order of
the world and loses patience with much that she has to do. In
short, her reading is subversive. The consequence is, of course,
surprising, mildly shocking and very funny.
