A marvellous, life-enhancing book for all ages, now a major
animated film starring Jim Broadbent, Brenda Blethyn and Luke
Treadaway Utterly original, deeply moving and very funny, Ethel
& Ernest tells the story of Raymond Briggs' parents' marriage,
lady's maid Ethel and milkman Ernest, from their first chance
encounter in 1928, through the birth of their son Raymond in 1934,
to their deaths, within months of each other, in 1971. Told in
Brigg`s unique strip-cartoon format, Ethel and Ernest live through
the defining moments of the twentieth century: the darkness of the
Great Depression, the build up to World War II, the trials of the
war years, the euphoria of VE Day and the emergence of a generation
from post war austerity to the cultural enlightenment of the 1960s.
Ethel & Ernest is a heartfelt and affectionate tribute to an
ordinary couple and an extraordinary generation.
