A Funny Life by Michael McIntyre is his long-awaited, new autobiography. Laugh along with Michael McIntyre as he lifts the curtain on his life for all to see.
Michael’s first book ended with his big break at the 2006 Royal Variety Performance. But……where to go from there now that he had broken into show business big-time?
He was still living in the same old flat with his beautiful wife, Kitty and their lively one-year-old son, Lucas. The walls were so thin that they could hear their neighbours indulging in marital relations after “Friday Night with Johnathan Ross”!
However, his “cigar-chomping, management-juggernaut agent”, Addison Cresswell, was up to the challenge. Unfortunately, Michael wasn’t always in sync and failed miserably on two-game show appearances until success on “Have I Got News For You” hosted by Jeremy Clarkson.
The highs and lows continue until he eventually finds the fame and fortune he enjoys today, having become the biggest ticket-selling comedian in the world.
This is his hilarious, and often poignant story as he travels that stony path.
Michael’s new autobiography is guaranteed to make you laugh out loud. While watching Michael’s comedy shows on TV, such as “Live at the Apollo” and “The Comedy Roadshow”, you might have realised that much of his material is taken from his many actual life experiences. These are skillfully embellished by his signature fast action speech and movement onstage.
His narrative describes many of these original hilarious experiences, such as the time he was given “Lionel Ritchie’s Suite” in the best hotel in Seaham!
While on tour in Hong Kong, he mistook himself for an Asian man in the mirror of his hotel room?? Then, later, in the same hotel’s dining room, he was mistaken for a Chinese businessman!
There are incidences with broken limbs and falling trousers, making it difficult to pick out the most hilarious, as there are so many.
Therefore, if you didn’t receive a copy from Santa, go to your nearest bookstore or online to purchase one asap!
A Funny Life is available in hardback, paperback and e-book.
