'Palin's calm manner and writing style, as ever, make the journey an exceptional one.' -- Natalie Bushe THE HERALD 'As you would expect from this most engaging of writers and broadcasters, the diaries are funny, honest and perceptive. Even better, the audio version is read by Palin himself.' -- Simon Evans PARK & HOLIDAY HOMES Read by the author, these memoirs of the PYTHON years are riveting... Palin brings to bear an affectionate but accurate eye. We experience the insecurities of John Cleese, Graham Chapman's drunken grandeur, the pleasure of George Harrison's company, the obstinacy of Woody Allen, and the wackiness of Shelley Duvall, along with glimpses of Palin's family joys and sadnesses.' -- Betty Tadman THE SCOTSMAN '3 out of 4 stars' -- Stefaan Werbrouck FOCUS KNACK 'There's something about Michael Palin's voice which is perfect for audiobooks... a fascinating account of the Monty Python years from the inside... the time just flies by... Fabulous stuff from Gospel Oak's most popular globetrotter.' -- David Crozier HAM & HIGH
