I, Partridge: We Need to Talk about Alan. Alan Partridge with Rob Gibbons ... [Et Al.]
'The funniest book of the year and possibly all time.' *****Heat 'This book is a genuinely hilarious read' Shortlist 'A rare treat... painfully funny in that inimitable Alan way.' **** Sunday Express 'As a parody of celebrity autobiography, it's sound; but as a sustained piece of comic writing, it's outstanding.' **** Time Out 'Brilliantly witty' The Times 'This should be nominated for the Booker prize...it's a really funny book but it's actually more than that...it blows my post-modern mind' David Baddiel 'I, Partridge might just be the funniest book I've ever read. Proper laugh out load moment on every page.' Richard Bacon 'This fictional memoir ... could be the antidote to the celeb biographies that clog the Christmas book market. It's as acute a spoof of the publishing sub-genre as the Alan Partridge character is of a whole tranche of crassly opinionated lowbrow broadcasters...brilliantly sustained wit.' Evening Standard 'I, Partridge is an indispensable guide to what it's like to be an all-round media personality in the 21st Century. In this, it compares very well with the finest in the genre.' **** Mail on Sunday ***** The Telegraph 'Extremely funny' Word Magazine 'Pure comic genius' The Independent 'The best book of the year... without peer... I urge people to go out and buy it.' Danny Baker 'An acutely observed mock-memoir, touching on the great man's highs (receiving a Burton's Gold Card) and lows (Toblerone addiction) in equally self-regarding manner.' Independent on Sunday 'A magnificent comedy creation'; 'The significant celebrity book this year.' The Guardian
