Happyslapped by a Jellyfish: The Words of Karl Pilkington

2007Karl Pilkington

4.8/5

For me, the genius of Karl in the podcasts is that he was unaware that he is such a hilarious man. Steve and Ricky set him going - and then we laughed along with them at his ridiculous, outlandish statements.In this book, Karl is aware that he is an amusing man but he is trying to recreate his spontaneous, natural statements in a concious way. Originally the humour resided in the fact that he was unaware how funny his opinions are - now he's aware of it and is deliberately doing it, some of the humour has inevitably been lost.Regardless of that, this is an amusing book and it's very easy to read. Great for on the beach/ on the toilet / on a train journey if you're half pissed - that sort of thing.
