Co-presenter of BBC Radio 4's 'The Infinite Monkey Cage' and a radio double act and stand-up worldwide partner of Professor Brian Cox, Robin Ince has a lovely daddy who's a big customer of Bibliophile! In his touching and witty book, Robin uses the life of the stand-up comedian as a way of exploring some of the biggest questions we all face. Where does anxiety come from? How do we overcome imposter syndrome? What is the key to creativity? How can we deal with grief? He asks you to look at your childhood, tells us about the brain, hardware and chemistry, talking about yourself behind your back, daydreaming for a purpose, getting to know your inner fraud, anxiety, morals and temptations and thinking about death. Where is thy Punchline? Informed by personal insights from Robin as well as interviews with some of the world's top comedians, neuroscientists and psychologists, this is an hilarious and often moving primer to the mind, and a powerful call to embrace the full breadth of our own inner experience, no matter how strange or worrying that may be! 276pp.
