Description
The funny, warm and moving diaries of a man at the centre of one of the world's most influential comedy troupes.
Michael Palin's diaries begin when he was newly married and struggling to make a name for himself in the world of television comedy. But Monty Python was just around the corner...
The Python Years is an engaging volume that serves as a window into the world of Monty Python, from the group's early cult success to the global superstardom that followed. Amongst tales from the making of The Holy Grail and Life of Brian are stories of the three-day week and the various trials of a peripatetic life, told with Michael's trademark warmth and good humour.
