    This dazzling memoir promises to be a courageously frank, honest and poignant read. It will detail some of Fry's most turbulent and least-well-known years, with writing that will excite you, make you laugh uproariously, move you, inform you, and, above all, surprise you.

    Story

    I must admit, I was unsure if I should try this book.. I'm so glad I did, its a fantastic read.. It kept my glued to my ipod until the book was finished.

    Warning, there are a couple of bits in this book that will make you spit your coffee out.. and most likely laugh out loud.

    Would recommend to anybody.

    Story

    Winner of the Best Picture Oscar 2011 Award. One man saved the British Royal Family in the first decades of the 20th century - amazingly he was an almost unknown, and certainly unqualified, speech therapist called Lionel Logue, whom one newspaper in the 1930s famously dubbed 'The Quack who saved a King'. Logue wasn't a British aristocrat or even an Englishman - he was a commoner and an Australian to boot.

    Story

    I was so looking forward to listening to this book.. And it didn't let me down, I loved it.. In fact I have now listened to this book 3 times.

    I must also say that the narrator Jamie Glover is brilliant, he keeps you listening all the way through.

    Even the last chapter brought a tear to my eye (even on the 3rd time of listening)
