Diaries 1969-1979: The Python Years by Michael Palin

4.0

A wholly fascinating diary by a wholly fascinating person. I already miss having Michael's life to live vicariously through but the good news is there are two more giant volumes on my shelf to read and hopefully more to come! At times it was a bit frustrating – lots of business talk and some unfair generalisations about North America whenever he visited (Canada isn't boring!) – but overall each entry was approached so honestly and with such child-like fascination that I couldn't help forgiving any of the bothersome bits.
