Having been raised on Monty Python at an early age, I could not have been more delighted to read about its beginnings and that of one of its founders, Eric Idle. We already know what a comic genius he is but as an added bonus you are privy to fantastic stories about most of the biggest names in show business and their unusual connection to Pythons and Eric Idle. These are not stories of stars passing each other at a party but instead, these remarkable and talented people became close friends - the kind that you spend the holidays with and attend weddings, visit and last but not least, invest in whatever that incredibly funny group of loonies is doing. What struck me most about this very funny book was not the name-dropping or goofy stories but the fact that he truly loves his friends and their time together. How refreshing to find a tell-all book that tells all about lifelong friendships and that he lives by his credo - always look on the bright side of life. My kind of sortabiography!
