External Reviews
'Perfect prose and excruciating honesty. A grand reminiscence of college and theatre and comedyland in the 1980s, with tone-perfect anecdotes and genuine readerly excitement. What Fry does, essentially, is tell us who he really is. Above all else, a thoughtful book. And namedroppy too, and funny, and marbled with melancholy' - Observer.
'Arguably the greatest living Englishman' - Independent on Sunday.
'Extremely enjoyable' - Sunday Times.
