Books like The Life of Lee

This biography did not meet my expectations but actually ended up exceeding them. Rather than a chornology of his quite obviously amazing career in comedy this biography is a compliation of childhood and teenage memories documenting the key events, people and breaks that eventually led Lee Evans into the path of showbiz and comedy. I absolutely loved the way that Lee Evans writes in this book, so starkly honest but at the same time cracking jokes and keeping the whole thing light. I'll be honest there were some parts of this book that made me tear-up because both he and his future wife Heather went through some really tough years but look at him! He never gave up and look where he is now! A true inspiration to anyone, especially in a climate of economic downturn which reflects so closely that in Lee's book. Not only has this book cemented the comedy genius of Evans but it has also shown me that he is an inspiration as a man, husband and entertainer! Loved it!
