The first book from stand-up comedian Simon Amstell
Simon Amstell is a comedian, screenwriter and director. 2017 sees
his first feature-length film, Carnage, and his latest stand-up
tour, What is This?
He has previously written and starred in the television series
Grandma's House, and his past stand-up tours include To Be Free,
Numb and Do Nothing.
He also hosted some popular television programmes but he is now too
pretentious to list them here.
A beautiful and clever book about being human. All the warmth of
his comedy without the inconvenience of his face
*Russell Brand*
Hard to imagine anyone not loving this... go Simon Amstell!
*Stephen Fry*
Disarmingly, almost alarmingly, honest. I laughed out loud 57
times
*Martin Freeman*
No one makes loneliness and anxiety as funny as Simon Amstell.
Every sentence in this book is simultaneously heartbreaking and
hilarious
*Hadley Freeman*
Enrapturing. Touching, funny and sweet
*Alain de Botton*
Puts the fun in 'insanely honest introspection fun'
*Adam Buxton*
A brilliantly funny, sad, clever, silly book. I loved it!
*Matt Lucas*
Amstell is a likable, self-deprecating guide to his own flaws, and
has spent enough time in therapy to dissect his own navel-gazing
with a nicely dry self-awareness
*Observer*
Hilarious and heart-breaking… Simon’s unique take on the world is a
reminder of the absurdity of life and the humour that can be found
even in its darkest moments. Genuinely life-affirming, moving and
profoundly funny
*Attitude*
Compulsively, excruciatingly honest… An heroically spiky,
self-excavating read about family, fame, sex and self-discovery
