Description

A number one bestseller in Britain, Stephen Fry’s astonishingly frank, funny, wise memoir is thebook that his fans everywhere have been waiting for. Since his PBStelevision debut in the Blackadder series, the American profile of thismultitalented writer, actor and comedian has grown steadily, especiallyin the wake of his title role in the film Wilde, which earned him aGolden Globe nomination, and his supporting role in A Civil Action.

Fry has already given readers a taste of his tumultuous adolescence in his autobiographical first novel, The Liar,and now he reveals the equally tumultuous life that inspired it. Sentto boarding school at the age of seven, he survived beatings, misery,love affairs, carnal violation, expulsion, attempted suicide, criminalconviction and imprisonment to emerge, at the age of eighteen, ready tostart over in a world in which he had always felt a stranger. One ofvery few Cambridge University graduates to have been imprisoned prior tohis freshman year, Fry is a brilliantly idiosyncratic character whocontinues to attract controversy, empathy and real devotion.
