I wasn’t sure what to expect but Davies is an excellent writer. He writes with great detail and beauty. I found sometimes it jumped around quite a lot so it made it difficult to follow the timeline but that did not affect the overall message. A brave and raw book.

Absolutely heartbreaking. Listening to Alan narrate this himself was so devastating that I had to listen to the whole 8.5 hours in one sitting. This book felt a lot like some form of self-therapy and there are many questions posed throughout the book for which he has no answer. This is definitely a book which will stick with me for a while.

I have a tendency to pick up memiors because I enjoy them, without scoping out the blurb so all I knew when downloading this was it was the funny, charming, clever Alan Davis.

This was a very hard listen, well written, with moments of whimsy amongst the traumatic recollections. It encompasses why you should always, always listen to victims.

Would recommend anyone who's a fan of a memior, who has space to listen to hard topics, or anyone who enjoys Davis' comedy.
