About this listen

In this book, Richard Ayoade - actor, writer, director, and amateur dentist - reflects on his cinematic legacy as only he can: in conversation with himself. Over 10 brilliantly insightful and often erotic interviews, Ayoade examines Ayoade fully and without mercy, leading a breathless investigation into this once-in-a-generation visionary. They have called their book Ayoade on Ayoade: A Cinematic Odyssey. Take the journey, and your life will never be the same again.

Ayoade is so consistently self effacing it's very hard to tell whether his writing is stupid or sardonic and I get the impression that's exactly what he is hoping people might say. Either way he seems quite pleased with himself, which isn't a criticism, I'd be pleased with myself if I could read my own writing and sound as though I understood it. You should listen to this audiobook if you like whacky things that are definitely funny and might also be clever. I never really understand if the joke is entirely on me, the listener, but I suppose that's my own fault for being a bit dim.

very good

This would be funny if it was shorter, but, after a while, once you get the whole idea it just repeats in the same way. Like the guy but too much of this is like eating too much cheese, great at first, then gets a bit samey and ultimately you start wondering why you bought so much cheese. Not that this book is cheesy. But he should make another film - his other two where good.

Okay so I get it and I know it's ironic and stuff

I loved it, but agree somewhat with other reviews - this is a book for fans who appreciate Ayoade's acerbic wit and unique sense of irony. Quirky but brilliant!

Ayoade does it again!

I enjoyed this, but not quite as much as Ayoade on Top. There was a randomness to it that was hilarious most of the time but a bit confusing and hard to follow at others. Perhaps, (as he stated multiple times), it simply works a bit better on paper.

Fun and weird
