Blurb: In this book Richard Ayoade- actor, writer, director, and amateur dentist- reflects on his cinematic legacy as only he can: in conversation with himself.
Over ten brilliantly insightful and often erotic interviews, Ayoade examines himself fully and without mercy, leading a breathless investigation through the private portals of a visionary.
Only Ayoade can appreciate Ayoade's unique methodology.
Only Ayoade can recognise Ayoade's talent.
Only Ayoade can withstand Ayoade's peculiar scent.
Only Ayoade can truly get inside Ayoade.
Only Ayoade could write Ayoade on Ayoade: A cinematic odyssey. Take the journey, and your life will never be the same again.
Review: This was another book I received on Christmas. Richard Ayoade is one of my favourite comedic actors so I HAD to get this book. You may has seen him on 'The IT Crowd', in the film 'The Watch', on many episodes of '8 out of 10 Cats' and 'The Big Fat Quiz of the Year'. If not, let me just say, he is one of the most peculiar people you will ever encounter. If you have a dry sense of humour, I'm certain you will enjoy this book.
Ayoade interviews himself in the book and has a handy appendix, which you can easily flick back and forth to throughout the book. The book is packed with humour and delves into the crazy mind of Ayoade. At times, the book doesn't really make sense but it doesn't really matter because, at times, neither does Ayoade. So if you're looking for a funny autobiography or want to find out more about Ayoade, this is certainly the book for you.
