Her dad, a clarinettist in a band, played the Third Programme loudly when he wasn't practicing. The family had a variety of instruments, but Jean and her sister Chris particularly fought over the zither, which they assumed every house had. The zither, a beautiful object sitting among the mundane mess in the pantry, mirrored the loveliness of their life amidst the clutter at 66 Minto Street.  A Zither in the Pantry is not a typical memoir, but rather a collection of short stories written with humor by this 11-year-old child. It also serves as a social commentary on working class life in the 40s and early 50s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 144g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 128 x 199 x 9 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781788648950\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jean Kevitt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45922541830394,"sku":"9781788648950","price":7.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1714766917952_book.jpg?v=1715503990","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-zither-in-the-pantry-9781788648950","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
