MissRuddock has no real friends and finds it difficult to fill her era soshe is oft sitting in her chair, looking out of her window andnoting what is going on in other peoples lives. She has no sociallife and she nevertheless leaves the house when she has to.Alan Bennett shows Miss Ruddocks loneliness through her obsession ofwriting garner. She uses these letters as a way of communicating withthe world outside her home. In the drama, before going to prison, wedo not hear Miss Ruddock have a meaningful conversation with anyoneother than her doctor, who she is talking to, not virtually her ownhealth, but about her neighbours child, who she feels is beingneglected. This shows that she is lonely because she has no closefamily or friends around her who she ca n talk to so she think that bywriting letters she is helping the people around her and makingherself feel useful. In the monologue Miss Ruddock writes letters to awide range of people. wholly of the letters have one thing is common,which is that they are all letters of complaint. She goes to thefuneral of somebody she barely knew and complained to the funeraldirectors about grown men sulking in the rhododendrons with tab endsin their mouths.

For close to people prison is theworst time of their lives but prison gave Miss Ruddock a new licenseof life and now she has so little time for herself and feels so wantedand needed she loves life.I think that when Miss Ruddock is released from prison she will notcontinue to write letters. I think that, for most people the storyhad a sad ending, but Miss Ruddock learned a lot from prison, ithelped her to overcome her terrible loneliness by making her feelshe had a purpose. It also taught her how to communicate with peopleorally, and how to make friends.
