A Cream Cracker Under the Settee
by Alan Bennett
Synopsis
Doris, a widow, lives alone.
Refusing to relinquish her independence, she surreptitiously cleans when her home help, Zulema, is absent.
When we meet her, she has just fallen over whilst attempting to dust a picture frame high on the wall.
The day goes on; unable to get help, Doris reminisces about her quiet, uneventful life with its joys and sadnesses.
