More About This Title Common as Muck!

English
Abandoned by his mother when he was just nine years old, by the time Royston Vasey was 19 he had been married, divorced, had two children, spent two years in Borstal, and several months in prison, and had been shot at in the Merchant Navy. By the time he was 35, he was one of Britain’s most successful comics, playing live to half a million fans a year as Roy "Chubby" Brown. Here he tells his incredible story. Frank, funny, andperhaps unexpectedlyoften moving, it is a tale of a man battling to escape his background and become a star. From his impossibly deprived childhood to his controversial comic persona to his more recent battle against throat cancer, Roy "Chubby" Brown's life is as remarkable and fascinating as the man himself. Abridged.
