Inhaltsangabe

'Barry, you used to be so nice,' Louisa Humphries frequently said to her son. Now, in his maturity, Australia's most famous comedian reflects on his long journey away from niceness.
Described by Barry as a 'cubist self-portrait', MY LIFE AS ME revisits his childhood, his love-hate relationship with Australia and his adventures of the heart and of the stage.
A master of comic writing, he tells us of his privileged youth in suburban Melbourne. With a disarming candour that he already regrets, he describes his hectic artistic and romantic career in Australia, England and America, and he shares with us hilarious behind-the-scenes details of his life as creator and personal manager of Les Patterson, Sandy Stone and Dame Edna Everage.
