So Me

So Me by Graham Norton. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780340833483.

Hugely entertaining and refreshingly honest, So Me is the memoir everybody has been waiting for. Graham Norton, whose impish charm and quick wit has earned him a place in our hearts, looks back at his life so far, a personal journey that begins in a remote village in Ireland forty years ago. Packed with anecdotes about his time at Cork University before dropping out and joining a commune of hippies in San Francisco, about his disastrous attempts at becoming a serious actor and about the rise of his comedy career in London, this is a hilarious, insightful and at times moving account of a very colourful life. As Norton puts it himself, So Me is "a real romp through a journey from living in a cockroach-infested council flat in Hackney to buying Claudia Schiffers townhouse in Manhattan, from my mother dragging me to school to me dragging her to Sharon Stones house for New Years brunch". Containing Graham Nortons trademark stamp of surreal humour and wry observation, So Me is a treat for all of the presenters millions of fans.
