Özet

Get to know a national icon in Eddie Izzard's hilarious and dazzling autobiography

'Comic genius . . . Entertainment incarnate' Telegraph
______

Star of stage and screen. Tireless supporter of charity. Marathon runner. Political campaigner.
Fashion icon. Human.

There is no one quite like Eddie Izzard. This is the story of how she broke through.

Her relentless optimism has led her to always do things her own way, even if it didn't work the first time, and her incredible self-belief has pushed her to keep on trying, even if it didn't work the second or third time either.

Whether she was putting on teddy bear shows on boarding school beds or swordfighting on the streets of London, Eddie never stopped trying to achieve her dreams of becoming a performer.

Brimming with her distinctively surreal humour and disarming candour, Believe Me tells the story of a person who never took no for an answer.

Eleştirmen yorumları

King of the Universe . . . Comic genius . . . Entertainment incarnate
Izzard is Wikipedia in heels. He's made his career out of hilarious, dizzying, surreal routines held up by their own daft logic . . . A force of nature
Sheer Comic Genius. His humour reflects the scattershot lunacy of Monty Python, but with a sophisticated silliness that is entirely his own. He is the most brilliant stand-up comedian of his generation
A comedy gem
Izzard has a knack for reducing centuries' worth of history to just a few exquisite words (the Romans were just 'fascist plumbers', for example)
The funniest man in England
The funniest man in, well, pretty much all of the known universe
Izzard is fleet of foot - even in Cuban heels
Had the Pythons stuck it out, they'd certainly be doing Izzard-like gags
A consistent intelligence underpins Izzard's whimsy

Thanks Eddie for sharing, it really did feel like a long one sided chat with a friend. I would recommend this audio book.

Absolutely loved it

Eddie is a genius with a big heart and a very funny guy. Get used to the foot notes and treat them like the icing on the cake.

Dazzling

I'm a big Eddie Izzard fan and this is his story, in detail. In lots of detail. In fact I found that it went on a bit to be honest and some sections were over-long, but it really picked up towards the end as it got to his marathon running.
Eddie narrates the story himself and provides LOADS of additional information as he improvises and goes off at tangents. At least a third of this book is 'footnotes'. If you play the drinking game of having a shot whenever Eddie says the word 'footnote' you will spend your entire 14+ hour listen in a drunken haze. Very enjoyable no doubt!
It's a good book and a good listen but I think you need to be a real Eddie Izzard fan to get the most from it.

One for the hardcore fans

Eddie is the 1st author who goes completly of page when reading, a really inspiring person, kind hearted and sincere. A joy to listen to as always. I wish there were more people like Eddie. I enjoyed his theory about the universe.

End of long windy footnote.

Izzard is heartful, genuine, and hilarious. Endless footnotes and jokes, with a sense of humanity that tears at you.

Meandering, tagental, rambling, and briliant.
