About this listen

In Confessions of a Conjuror, Derren Brown invites you on a whimsical journey through his unusual mind. Structured around the various stages of a conjuring trick, performed by his younger self in a crowded restaurant, Derren's endlessly engaging narrative takes you from the history of magic, to speculations on the manufacturing of Monster Munch and the correct way to poach an egg, via discussions about psychology, what he hums while cleaning his teeth and the social niceties surrounding Parmesan cheese.

Hugely revealing, hilarious and unlike anything you’ve read before, Confessions of a Conjuror is a refreshing alternative to autobiography that will charm and delight you.

Darren is an excellent wordsmith and a humorous writer. I as a man of faith appreciate , and although disagree with him, really appreciate his honesty and I have great respect for his thinking. As a fellow OCD person I found this book very relatable. I highly recommend his podcasts also as a neuroscience student. Thanks so much!

Easily the most enjoyable audio book I have listened to! As a magician and a huge fan of Derren Brown, I could instantly resonate with his walk around conjuring structure while being enlightened by Derren's tangents about how he experienced the world.

One of my favourites

Hearing Darren narrate his book brings to life the often amusing and picturesque tales of him growing up and beginning his career.

As someone who listens to audio books in order to multitask, I often found myself distracted by Derren's poetic description and rarely finishing the second task I'd taken on.

I felt intrigued throughout the book but none more so than the final two words.

Beguiling

This is such a great way to tell your own story, so entertaining! And how affirming to know I too have developed that same method for poaching eggs! 😂

Very entertaining!
