GrandmaY reviewed Before and Laughter by Jimmy Carr
Review of 'Before and Laughter' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Like many others I was taken by surprise with this. For the first couple of chapters I thought it was very disjointed and then reaised that it is not actually a memoir as I had presumed. I found the middle chapters thought provoking but my interest waned again before the end as the advice was directed towards anybody planning to go into standup, which I am not. Although I would have loved a few more of his anecdotes I do feel I know Jimmy Carr a lot better than I did which is, I think, what he intended.
