A very enjoyable autobiography. Some I’ve read have been inspirational, some boring and self centred, some a great story badly written, some educational, but this one was likely the most enjoyable read so far.
The right mix of self depreciation and pride, humour and seriousness, straight forward storytelling and meandering.
As with many autobiographies I highly recommend the audiobook read by the author, in this case more than most because not only is it more expressive but the Fry has a great voice for reading (I may or may not have picked it up for that reason alone).
