The funny, warm and moving diaries of a man at the centre of one of the world’s most influential comedy troupes.

Michael Palin’s diaries begin when he was newly married and struggling to make a name for himself in the world of television comedy. But Monty Python was just around the corner . . .

This engaging volume is a window into the world of Monty Python, from the group’s early cult success to the global superstardom that followed.
