Tickling the English by Dara O Briain
Why do the English pretend to be unhappy all the time? Why can't they accept they rank about 5th, in everything? And what's with all the fudge? This book explores themes such as nostalgia, identity, eccentricity, gin drinking and occasional violence. It is an eye-opening journey through the Sceptred Isle.
A master-class in intelligent stand-up..It's thoughtful stuff, impeccably delivered. With material this strong, you don't need gimmicks * Guardian *
