A TIMES BEST COMEDY BOOK OF 2021 'Phil Wang makes me laugh out loud
with every single thing he does and this book is no exception'
JAMES ACASTER 'An hilarious breath of fresh air' AMY SCHUMER 'Phil
Wang is as original a writer as he is a comedian. Sidesplitter is
predictably hilarious but also quietly moving' SATHNAM SANGHERA 'A
razor-sharp dissection of cultural connections, divides and
differences. And yes, it's side-splittingly funny' ADAM KAY 'But
where are you REALLY from?' Phil Wang has been asked this question
so many times he's finally written a book about it. In this mix of
comic memoir and observational essay, one of the UK's most exciting
stand-up comedians reflects on his experiences as a Eurasian man in
the West and in the East. Phil was born in Stoke-on-Trent, raised
in Malaysia, and then came of age in Bath - 'a spa town for people
who find Cheltenham too ethnic'. Phil takes an incisive look at
what it means to be mixed race, as he explores the contrasts
between cultures and delves into Britain and Malaysia's shared
histories, bringing his trademark cynicism and wit to topics
ranging from family, food, and comedy to race, empire, and
colonialism.
