Synopsis
COMEDY, TRAGEDY, THERAPY
Simon Amstell did his first stand-up gig at the age of 13. His parents had just divorced and puberty was confusing. Trying to be funny solved everything.
Help is the hilarious and heartbreaking account of Simon’s ongoing compulsion to reveal his entire self on stage. To tell the truth so it can’t hurt him any more. Loneliness, anxiety, depression—this book has it all. And more. From a complicated childhood in Essex to an Ayahuasca-led epiphany in the Amazon rainforest, this story will make you laugh, cry and then feel happier than you’ve ever been.

About the Author
Simon Amstell is a comedian, screenwriter and director. His first feature-length film, Carnage, was released in 2017. He wrote and starred in the TV series Grandma's House, and he has done several stand-up tours, including What Is This? He also hosted some popular television programs but he is now too pretentious to list them here.
