The Fry Chronicles
I enjoyed this second stage of Fry's autobiography, which covers eight years only: his college life, and his early professional life in stage and television comedy in Britain. As with the previous volume, there's lots of introspective rambling (a feature I enjoy) and plenty of anecodotes. There are also plenty of photos, showing Frye with Hugh Laurie (of course), Emma Thompson, Rowan Atkinson - who was a kind of rival at the beginning - and various other luminaries of the British comedy scene in the just-post-Monty-Python era.I'll probably keep this on the "showbiz" shelf for a while, and perhaps pick it up every now and then for a ramble around on youtube.
