Always look on the bright side of life :
Idle, Eric.
Always look on the bright side of life : a sortabiography / Eric Idle. - London : Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2018. - Hardback illustrations (black and white, and colour) ; 24 cm.
Includes index.
Best known for his unforgettable roles in 'Monty Python,' from the 'Flying Circus' to 'The Meaning of Life,' Eric Idle reflects on the meaning of his own life in this brilliantly entertaining memoir that takes us on an unforgettable journey from his childhood in an austere boarding school through his successful career in comedy, television, theatre and film. Coming of age as a writer and comedian during the Sixties and Seventies, Eric stumbled into the crossroads of the cultural revolution and found himself rubbing shoulders with the likes of George Harrison, David Bowie, and Robin Williams, all of whom became lifelong friends. With anecdotes sprinkled throughout that involve other close friends and luminaries such as Mick Jagger, Steve Martin, Paul Simon, and Mike Nichols - let alone the Pythons themselves - Eric captures a time of tremendous creative output with equal hilarity and heart.
