About this listen

Spectator World Book of the Year 2022

The heart-warming memoir from British jewellery and silverware designer, Theo Fennell.

From the depths of financial despair to the glittering celebrity world of the rich and famous, Theo Fennell's journey has been anything but predictable. With humour, candour and self-depreciation, Fennell charts the highs and lows of his remarkable career, from dealing with hardened criminals to designing for Elton John, Lady Gaga and Madonna.

Critic reviews

"There's no one quite like Theo Fennell. Relive the high spots of a life crowded, as Lady Bracknell would say, with incident. Our hero Theo, while without fail making an improbable and preposterous arse of himself in every direction, always manages somehow to emerge from each adventure ruefully triumphant. I ripped through I Fear For This Boy like a train, snorting with laughter and delight as I rattled along, pulled by the power of Fennell's unique story-telling genius.... I can't recommend the ride highly enough." (Stephen Fry)

"Fennell has produced one of the funniest books I have ever read. Utterly beguiling and superbly well-written, it will become a classic of the genre." (William Boyd)

"As funny as one of my books. I almost couldn't put it down. Theo's book is as funny as Theo - a rare achievement." (Barry Humphries)

Most relevant

This audio book has kept me company for numerous commutes to work.
Theo is an incredible story teller… I have cried with laughter in nearly every chapter (yes, I was that person on the train). Such wonderful accounts of Theo’s life. I knew nothing of Theo previously but now I’m wondering how I can make him be a permanent guest at our dinner table (somebody give him my number!).
I’m wondering what I will do now that I have finished this audio book… I may have to listen to it all over again.
