Fiction & Literature; Cartoons & comic strips

Annie Tempest has been called a national treasure for her much-lauded and internationally loved cartoon strip about a fictitious English village with the eccentric Lord and Lady Tottering and their family who reside at Tottering Hall.

During the thirty years that 'Tottering-by-Gently' has appeared weekly in Country Life magazine, the Tottering family all three generations of them have been seen enjoying diverse pastimes and sporting pursuits including tennis, riding, skiing, golf, sailing, fishing and cricket.

This latest, keenly anticipated offering is illustrated with more than 100 of Annie's superb colour cartoons and is a winning celebration of the Totterings and the British at play.

AUTHOR: Annie Tempest is one of the top cartoonists working in the UK. This was recognised in 2009 with the Cartoon Art Trust awarding her the Pont Prize for the portrayal of the British Character. Annie's cartoon career began in 1985 with the success of her first book, How Green Are Your Wellies? This led to a regular cartoon, 'Westenders' in the Daily Express. Soon after, she joined the Daily Mail with the 'Yuppies' cartoon strip which ran for more than seven years and for which, in 1989, she was awarded Strip Cartoonist of the Year. Since 1993 Annie Tempest has been charting the life of Daffy and Dicky Tottering in Tottering-by-Gently the phenomenally successful weekly strip cartoon in Country Life.
