Product Description

We know him best for his unforgettable roles on Monty Python
- from the Flying Circus to The Meaning of Life.

Now, Eric Idle reflects on the meaning of his own life in this entertaining memoir that takes us on a remarkable journey from his childhood in an austere boarding school through his successful career in comedy, television, theatre & film.

Coming of age as a writer & comedian during the Sixties & Seventies, Eric stumbled into the crossroads of the cultural revolution & found himself rubbing shoulders with the likes of George Harrison, David Bowie & Robin Williams, all of whom became lifelong friends.

With anecdotes sprinkled throughout involving Mike Nichols, Mick Jagger, Steve Martin, Paul Simon & many more, as well as the Pythons themselves, Eric captures a time of tremendous creative output with equal parts hilarity & heart.
