review: Editorial Reviews Review “The book is lavishly packed with entertaining stories and visual asides, photos, drawings, and illustrations, most accompanied by the author’s pithy commentary and reflections.” — Kirkus Review “Legendary film director―and member of the fabulous Monty Python sketch-comedy troupe―Terry Gilliam has filled his autobiography with never-before-seen drawings and artwork, as well as a chronicling of his life” — Penthouse Magazine “...a candid and illuminating Declaration of Principles in which the author emerges as his own Quixote.” — Chicago Tribune ” Gilliamesque is a guide from someone who has been in the trenches of Hollywood who isn?t afraid to share how it really works. ” — Quartz “It’s chock full of intimate stories about life as a Python and both A-list Hollywood and indie director, but it is also unlike any other memoir in recent memory, with loads of stunning illustrations and Gilliam’s handwritten asides, giving each chapter layer upon layer of insight.” — Esquire “...cheerful and breezy...visually extraordinary throughout...an entertaining read for anyone curious to learn more about one of the most audacious filmmakers of our time.” — RogerEbert.com/Balder & Dash “His very funny new book, GILLIAMESQUE: A Pre-Posthumous Memoir...is a memoir as chaotic and irresistible as his animation . . .” — New York Times Book Review From the Back Cover This is probably as good a time as any for me to make a full confession . . .
