Résumé
'Put very simply, the details of my life could be boiled down to "boy dreams of being a comedian and then becomes one", so in a basic sense everything has gone according to plan. Item number one on the lifetime to-do list has been well and truly ticked off. 'But, of course, things are never that simple, because nobody becomes a comic without some degree of "character building" along the way...'When Jon Richardson unearthed his teenage diaries among a stash of 1990s mementoes, he hesitated before opening them.
What possible value could there be in revisiting the awkward, unfiltered thoughts of a 14-year-old boy, especially now, in his forties and a successful comedian, actor and father?As it turns out, quite a lot. In this candid memoir, Jon reconnects with his younger self - a boy growing up in an era when Oasis dominated the charts and Baywatch dominated his imagination. From embarrassing teenage misadventures, including a mortifying PE lesson involving a climbing rope, to small but significant triumphs like earning a pack of Chewits for the 'cleanest tent' at scout camp, Jon revisits the moments that shaped him and, ultimately, set him on the path to comedy.
Beneath the humour lies something deeper: a raw exploration of adolescence, identity and growing up working-class with seemingly limited horizons. With his trademark self-deprecating wit, Jon reflects not just on his youth, but on what it means to grow up and whether we ever really leave our younger selves behind. The Teenage Diaries of a Stand-Up Comedian will take readers on a vivid trip down memory lane but above all it is a moving reflection on how we see ourselves, then and now.
