My Booky Wook: A Memoir of Sex, Drugs, and Stand-Up

Before the fame Russell Brand’s life was anything but glamorous.  His father left when he was three months old, he was bulimic at age 12, and began drinking heavily and taking drugs by age 16.  In 2003 Russell was told that he would be in prison, a mental hospital, or dead within six months unless he went into rehab . . . 

A gleeful and candid autobiography of addiction, recovery, and rise to fame from Russell Brand, actor, presenter, podcaster, radio host, and one of the biggest personalities in comedy.

“A scandalous, libidinous memoir.  There is nothing Brand won’t reveal in search of a laugh and nothing he hasn’t done in search of love or experience or oblivion.  My Booky Wook is an exceptional combination of candor, ardor, and humor. -- The Guardian
