Synopsis

"Tragically I was an Only Twin" is a selection of British humorist Peter Cook's comic career, from "Beyond the Fringe," the satirical magazine "Private Eye," his routines with Dudley Moore, and later material. Much of it is very hard to find in the UK, where the book was published, let alone in the US. 350 pages.
