Graham Norton has been
entertaining audiences and having fun with some of the world's biggest stars
for nearly twenty years. He is loved across the nation for his delight in the
peculiar and for his ability to find humour and a common ground in all that life
brings.
The Life and Loves of a He Devil shows, it's really the things you love that make you who you are and so Graham tells his story from his Irish childhood to the present day, describing just what and who he loved - and sometimes lost - as a young boy, and his new loves and obsessions - big and small - as he's grown older.
It's been ten years since his last book and being a decade older Graham has come to realise that what makes a life interesting is less what happens to you and more what inspires and drives you, what you love.
From Dolly Parton and dogs to wine and Ireland, Graham tells of his life and loves with characteristic humour and outrageous candour.
‘Who else could get
Cher and Dawn French to sing karaoke to Believe, Benedict Cumberbatch to hug
his fans, or Helen Mirren to snog an American actor?’ — The Telegraph
