Publisher's Summary

The classic satirical novel

'Mrs. Harris is one of the great creations of fiction—so real that you feel you know her, yet truly magical as well. I can never have enough of her' Justine Picardie

'It is almost impossible not to succumb to Gallico's spell' Times Literary Supplement

Mrs. Harris is a salt-of-the-earth charlady, content with her lot, cleaning the homes of the rich. However, her knack of setting things straight often has the tendency to stray beyond keeping things neat and tidy...

In Mrs Harris MP, the honest as-ever old char impresses her employer with her no-nonsense political views to such an extent that he—an MP, no less—encourages her to become a voice for the people of Battersea and stand for election herself.

The world of local politics, however, soon proves a test for a lady as straight-laced as Mrs. Harris; political skulduggery, the glare of the media and the apparent betrayal of a trusted friend all becoming issues she just hadn't bargained on...

The narrator was Superb. Each of very different voices was done distinctly and credibly. Enjoyable!

Another delightful story

Mrs Harris continued to delight me in this novella. A very quaint story that is artfully narrated.
