From Shaun Micallef, beloved host of ABC TV's news satire Mad as
Hell, comes Tripping Over Myself - an insightful and funny memoir
about comedy and life that takes us through uncharted waters to
unexpected places. Comedy has been Shaun's escape, his guiding
light, his refuge, his passport, his lifebuoy, his drug, his mask,
his means, his end, his lingua franca, his Self. But it's not
everything. From his early years as a gangly, bespectacled nerd in
suburban Adelaide to the giddy heights of national TV stardom,
Shaun regales us with his experiences and his continuous
reinvention through humour with... well, humour. He writes with
candour about his successes and failures, loves and losses, along
with tales of wine, women, song, and eccentric dancing. Behind the
persona of one of Australia's best-loved comedians lurks, as you
will discover, an idiot. Despite Shaun's best efforts, Tripping
Over Myself is sprinkled with thoughtful insights and observations
and shows us how to persist in the face of adversity or even good
fortune. You will laugh, you will dog-ear pages, you will wonder,
you will Google 'Jerry Lewis', you may book a trip to India, and
you will come away from this book reflecting on your own life in
new and remarkable ways.
