Book description
Vic Reeves' vivid, enchanting, and utterly hilarious childhood memoir
is a comic masterpiece.
Before there was Vic Reeves, there was a boy called James Moir who
was much the same as any other lad. Obsessed with owning a pet crow, a
master at writing his name and terrified of his father's immense
moustache. Growing up in Yorkshire and then CountyDurham, the boy who
would be Reeves somehow managed to escape the attentions of 'Randy
Mandy' and get a crash course in pig castration, before having
encounters with Jimi Hendrix and the Yorkshire Ripper.
Peopled with weird and wonderful characters, Vic Reeves' memoir is
authentic, witty and inventive, and as unique as you'd expect from one
of Britain's most exceptional comedy talents.
Vic Reeves is one of the UK's most popular comedians. His TV
successes with Bob Mortimer have included
