Publisher's Summary

Candid and brilliantly funny, this is the story of how a tall, shy youth from Weston-super-Mare went on to become a self-confessed legend.

En route, John Cleese describes his nerve-racking first public appearance, at St Peter's Preparatory School at the age of eight and five-sixths; his endlessly peripatetic homelife, with parents who seemed incapable of staying in any house for longer than six months; his first experiences in the world of work, as a teacher who knew nothing about the subjects he was expected to teach; his hamster-owning days at Cambridge; and his first encounter with the man who would be his writing partner for over two decades, Graham Chapman. And so on to his dizzying ascent via scriptwriting for Peter Sellers, David Frost, Marty Feldman and others to the heights of Monty Python.

Punctuated from time to time with John Cleese's thoughts on topics as diverse as the nature of comedy, the relative merits of cricket and waterskiing and the importance of knowing the dates of all the kings and queens of England, this is a masterly performance by a former schoolmaster.

John Cleese is just amazing

Book is amazingly funny and extremely enjoyable but the audiobook narrated by John Cleese himself is just pure gold.
I laughed a lot and kept smiling all the time.
Timing is amazing, if you're Monty Python and Fawlty Towers fan like me, this is a must have.
I am 100% sure that I am going to listen to it multiple times without getting bored.
This book is now the reason of my happy mood during bus rides and a happy start of my day.
