Personal Pleasures is an anthology of 80 short essays (some of them very short) about the things she enjoyed most in life. Her subjects include:
  • Bed (Getting Into It)
  • Booksellers Catalogues
  • Christmas Morning
  • Driving a Car
  • Flattery
  • Heresies
  • Not Going to Parties
  • Shopping Abroad
  • Writing While each essay can be read on its own as a short dose of delicious writing, the collection is also an autobiographical selection, revealing glimpses of Rose's own life, and making us laugh helplessly with her inimitable humour.
