Title in This Set: Fight!: Thirty Years Not Quite at the Top by Harry Hill
Condition: BRAND NEW
Format: Hardcover
ISBN: 9781529381504
Looking for a laugh-out-loud memoir that doubles as an insider's guide to stand-up comedy? Fight! by Harry Hill is a sharp, witty, and candid nonfiction paperback-style hardcover perfect for fans of British comedy, aspiring comics, and anyone who loves a brilliant life story. A TIMES BEST COMEDY BOOK OF 2021, this book collection-style memoir traces Hill’s unexpectedly chaotic path from suburban Kent to the bright lights of the comedy circuit — and it’s packed with practical, hilarious lessons on how to make people laugh.
Harry Hill’s storytelling blends riotous anecdotes with clear-eyed career advice. Praised by peers and bestselling authors — “The funniest man in the world has written the funniest book in the world,” says David Walliams — Fight! offers more than nostalgia. Lee Mack calls it “a brilliant insight into what it takes to go from regular funny bloke to one of the best stand ups I’ve ever seen,” while Joe Lycett recommends it as “probably the best book of advice on how to be a comedian I’ve ever read.” That mix of memoir, mentorship, and comedy makes this an essential boxed-set-style addition to any comedy shelf.
From making smoke bombs and carving soap in 1970s Kent to the surreal world of being a junior doctor, Harry Hill's life reads like a comic sketch. He recounts moments that are both absurd and instructive — the small disasters, the near misses, and the hard-won triumphs that shaped a celebrated comic career. The narrative is ideal for readers who enjoy a children’s series of misadventures turned into adult lessons, or for anyone curious about the real grind behind TV success and stand-up fame.
Whether you’re buying for a comedy-mad friend, an aspiring stand-up, a teacher building a contemporary reading list, or simply adding a bestselling author’s memoir to your own library, Fight! makes a memorable gift. This hardcover edition is a timeless keepsake packed with laughter, insight, and the kind of quirky honesty that only Harry Hill can deliver — perfect for bedtime reading, a commuter companion, or a morale-boosting coffee-table book.
