Synopsis

Ruby Wax has a reputation for being one of TV's funniest and most notorious interviewers. Her up-front style is shockingly direct and her encounters with the rich and famous gripped millions during the 1990s. Part memoir and part exploration, this book takes us on a funny journey through life's big questions. Where, she asks, is the "Rough Guide to Life?" and the manual on "How to be a grown-up"? She reveals secrets she has learned from film stars and gurus, billionaires and therapists.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The autumn 2002 publication of Ruby Wax's memoirs was greeted with shock - and delighted acclaim. In the tradition of the best memoirs, such as The Moon's a Balloon and Billy, Ruby Wax revealed, surprised and captured the public more than was ever predicted.

How Do You Want Me? was critically acclaimed as brutally honest, vivid and gripping. Ruby Wax's unflinching revelation of a childhood poisoned, and a youth spoiled, culminates in a moving account of her breakdown and recovery. But How Do You Want Me? is also funny, rude and irreverent. It's unusually honest about fame and celebrity and happy to burst ego-balloons and golden myths.

A brilliantly fast, furious and surprising read from the inimitable Ruby Wax.
