Self-help meets memoir in this deeply insightful, fascinating and entertaining audiobook about happiness by one of the country's most treasured comedians.

*A memoir and self-help manual by one of the country's most treasured comedians - for anyone who feels stuck in a rut but doesn't have the tools or self-belief to shake things up*

In his mid-twenties, Jimmy was bored, boring, unfulfilled and underachieving. He wasn't exactly depressed, but he was very sad. Think of a baby owl whose mum has recently died in a windmill accident. He was that sad. This audiobook tells the story of how Jimmy turned it around and got happy, through the redemptive power of dick jokes.

Written to take advantage of the brief window between the end of lockdown and Jimmy getting cancelled for saying something unforgivable to Lorraine Kelly, this audiobook is as timely as it is unnecessary.

Because you might be interested in Jimmy's life but he's damn sure you're a lot more interested in your own, Before & Laughter is about both of you. But mainly him. It tells the story of Jimmy's life - the transformation from white-collar corporate drone to fake-toothed donkey-laugh plastic-haired comedy mannequin - while also explaining how to turn your own life around and become the you you've always dreamt of being. It's cheaper than Scientology, quicker than therapy, and significantly less boring than church.

Before & Laughter contains the answers to all the big questions in life, questions like:
· What's the secret to happiness?
· Is Jimmy wearing a wig?
· What happened with that tax thing?
· What's the meaning of life?
· Is Jimmy's laugh real?
· Can those teeth bite through vibranium?

Because it's Jimmy Carr - recently scientifically proved to be the funniest comedian in the UK - there are jokes, jokes and more jokes throughout. If laughter really was the best medicine, the NHS would be handing out this audiobook in Nightingale Hospitals.

Fascinating, thoughtful and insightful - are all words that appear in the audiobook.

An utterly sincere guide for people to achieve bigger things in life
Very funny and very beautiful, packed with jokes and genuinely wise advice
So good. I've loved every second of reading it
A hilarious book that will be adored by Jimmy's fans. Both of them
Made me laugh, made me think, what more do you want from a comedian's memoir?
I was really annoyed at how good this book is and that's the biggest compliment I can give
Very, very funny - a great read
At last, a selfless biography that aims to inspire and does. Also, of course, very, very funny
It's the first life advice book from someone whose life you would actually want

I love Jimmy Carr, so I thought "this will be funny". It was, but it was so much more than this. It was also full of sage advice. If like me, you've already read too many self-help books, then a lot of the advice won't be revolutionary. What it will be is a great deal of really great useful/practical advice delivered in a very entertaining and funny way. I feel like Jimmy has done an amazing job packaging up all of the really sensible points that are made throughout a bunch of different videos, articles, books, etc. by a range of people, and made them relatable by weaving them throughout the narrative of his life experiences.

You do get to learn more about Jimmy and his life, for instance (spoiler alert!) that he's dyslexic. It is autobiographical and contains lots of personal and showbiz funny and intimate stories. What you also get is the life lessons he's learnt along the way. Think Matthew McConaughey's biography but less ethereal, Hollywood and pretentious, and more funny, relatable and genuinely meaningful.

It's an absolute gem of a book and Jimmy reading himself adds a whole extra level of fun. I really would give it try even if you're not a huge fan.

Not what I expected, but in a good way!
