The Little Chronicle of Magdalena Bach | 
I took about 10 books to a charity shop the other day and came home with only two new ones! ?
Raymond Briggs's "When the Wind Blows" was one, the tagged being the other.
When first published in 1925, it seems it was presented as the diary of J.S. Bach's wife, not, I think, with an intention to deceive but as a literary device. Anyway, its reception was positive in terms of sales, but critically panned as mawkishly sentimental.
