Description
THE SUDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
The laugh-out-loud funny memoir and book of anecdotes about his life and loves from the nation’s favourite ‘Big Dog’ celebrity Traitor!
Why is catalogue shopping responsible for Jonathan Ross's inimitable sense of style?
Why does Jonathan wince every time he sees a Hoover?
And why did he fall in love with a deep-sea diver?
Why? Because this is Jonathan Ross. And nothing is out of bounds when it comes to talking about life as he knows it.
Sharply observed, laugh-out-loud funny, and completely outrageous, Why Do I Say These Things sees Jonathan talk about everything from sex and pugs to rock 'n' roll and genital warts, as only he can.
From boyhood to adult life, this is Jonathan Ross at his wicked and witty best.
