Описание: FINANCIAL TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017
Extraordinary and original Raymond Briggs
Sometimes it feels like I might be the only person awake in the whole country. People might find that a lonely thought. Not me...
As the rest of the world sleeps, the Gritterman goes out to work. Through the wind and the snow. Through the blue-black hours when time slips away, he grits the paths and the pavements and the roads. For him, a life without gritting is no life at all...
A song for the unsung hero, this is a story about stoicism, dignity and a man leaving behind the work that he loves. It is accompanied by the authors own illustrations.
