Michael McIntyre is Britain's biggest comedy star. But how did he get there?

Michael reveals all in his remarkably honest and hilarious autobiography, Life and Laughing.

From his showbiz roots to his appalling attempts to attract the opposite sex, his fish-out-of-water move from public to state school, and his astonishing journey from selling just one ticket at the Edinburgh Festival to selling half a million tickets on tour.

Filled with riveting anecdotes and poignant lessons, Life and Laughing is the unmissable story of Britain's biggest comedian's rise to stardom.

Above all, it's very, very funny.

Ratings and reviews

something is wrong withvthis book, I can't change the size of the text and it's too small for me to read. i have repeatedly asked for a refund and have been ignored. So disappointed as I love Michael McIntyre.

Lovely book that is easy to read. An inspirational true story of how long this fabulously popular comic had to work before his big break. Full of comedy and honesty. I don't read many books but I couldn't put this one down.

Genuinely enjoyed reading this book. Entertaining storytelling with a good pace. I laughed out loud at numerous points in the book. Whether you're a fan of Michael McIntyre or just a fan of autobiographies, I think you'll enjoy reading this book just the same.
