Alan Alexander Milne (1882-1956) was born in London. He was a regular contributor to Punch, and later, assistant editor, before the interruption of active service in the First World War. A remarkably versatile writer, Milne went on to become a hugely successful and widely-known playwright, both in the West End and on Broadway, as well as an essayist, poet, novelist and – most famously – children’s author, as the creator of Winnie-the-Pooh.
Gentle chaos sets in when the absent-minded Mr Pim calls in to see George Marden, bearing some innocent news...
George is a fine upstanding citizen and a stickler for doing the right thing. He has a devoted wife, Olivia, and is guardian to his somewhat flighty niece, Dinah.But his careful peace is broken when Mr Pim casually announces that he’s recently seen an ex-convict from Australia, Telworthy.
The only thing is that the character sounds awfully like Olivia’s first, and supposedly deceased, husband… and if he’s eally still alive, then Olivia is a bigamist.
Gentle chaos sets in when Mr Pim calls in to see George Marden, owner of Marden House, and announces that he's recently seen an ex-convict that sounds awfully like Olivia Marden's first and supposedly deceased husband.
A warm, funny, comedy of manners with a happy ending – a timeless classic
