Story
At last, the definitive audiobook about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow. In Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most 'insubstantial' people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don't care about. It's a journey deep within, in a way that's respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you've waited for the smaller paperback edition. Ayoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece.

Story
In Las Vegas to cover a motorcycle race, Raoul Duke (Thompson) and his attorney Dr. Gonzo (inspired by a friend of Thompson) are quickly diverted to search for the American dream. Their quest is fueled by nearly every drug imaginable and quickly becomes a surreal experience that blurs the line between reality and fantasy. But there is more to this hilarious tale than reckless behavior, for underneath the hallucinogenic facade is a stinging criticism of American greed and consumerism.

Fantastic book
- By Michael G. on 06-06-2023
Editorial reviews
Chances are you’re familiar with 2003’s The Room, a film that’s been dubbed the worst movie ever made — and a bona fide cult phenomenon. Originally pitched as a serious drama about a love triangle, this warped brainchild written, produced by and starring the enigma Tommy Wiseau, instead became known for its plot inconsistencies and terrible acting.
The Disaster Artist, written and narrated by none other than Greg Sestero, who portrayed Mark in the film, takes a fast-paced and hilarious behind-the-scenes look into the film's bizarre journey to infamy. While it’s hard not to laugh out loud at this recounting of this unique roller coaster journey, this listen is above all an honest and warm testament to friendship. Whether you’re a fan of The Room or the star-studded 2017 adaptation of The Disaster Artist, this is one audiobook you won’t want to pause.
Publisher's Summary
Now a major motion picture, The Disaster Artist, starring James Franco, Alison Brie, Zoey Deutch, Lizzy Caplan, Zac Efron, Bryan Cranston, Dave Franco, Kristen Bell, Seth Rogen, Sharon Stone, and Judd Apatow.
In 2003, an independent film called The Room - starring and written, produced, and directed by a mysteriously wealthy social misfit named Tommy Wiseau - made its disastrous debut in Los Angeles.
Described by one reviewer as 'like getting stabbed in the head', the $6 million film earned a grand total of $1,800 at the box office and closed after two weeks. Over a decade later, The Room is an international cult phenomenon whose legions of fans attend screenings featuring costumes, audience rituals, merchandising, and thousands of plastic spoons.
In The Disaster Artist, Greg Sestero, Tommy's costar, recounts the film's bizarre journey to infamy, explaining how the movie's many nonsensical scenes and bits of dialogue came to be and unravelling the mystery of Tommy Wiseau himself. But more than just a riotously funny story about cinematic hubris, The Disaster Artist is an honest and warm testament to friendship.

Captivated from start to finish!
Definitely one of the most enjoyable audiobooks I have ever listened too, and that's without seeing 'The Room' first.
Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell did a superb job of crafting this material which is cleverly and expertly read by Greg.
As someone has already stated in a previous review Greg's take on Tommy's voice is worth the ticket alone, (well for me at least).
This serves as a reminder that while Tommy Wiseau may not be the worlds best actor there is no denying he is a curiously fascinating and compellingly magnetic person and this is what truly underscores The Rooms unheralded success.
With Tommy Wisau starring, producing and directing what could go wrong, right?
The book left me wanting more and I do hope there is more coming as Greg has stumbled across a potential goldmine here, not only with this material, but also as a voice actor.

Gripping, must be read
What a fantastic journey Greg Seistero has laid out for us. An eye opening view not only on the bizarre and upsetting creation of The Room, but the life of a struggling actor trying to make it in Hollywood. A must read.

Absolutely entertaining
The stories were interesting and insightful. Greg was amazing with his voice imitation of Tommy Wiseau, even better than James Franco whose imitation I thought was already fantastic.

Feels Like You Are In The Room
Such a great insight into this rather bizarre movie. Even though there are alot of funny moments, you can just feel the intensity on what it may have been like if you were on that set.
Definetly worth it!!

Thank you, Greg
If you’ve seen or heard about the masterpiece ‘The Room’, or have stumbled here after the 2017 film adaptation of this book, you’re in for something beautiful.
Hearing about ‘The Room’, the first question I had was ‘who on earth agreed to be in this film?’ Greg Sestero is your man - a guy who is seemingly so laid back and willing to see the best in people that he would follow Tommy Wiseau into absolute peril.
He does a gorgeous reading of this. During my commute, it felt like a friend telling one long, hilarious story - complete with an amazing Tommy impersonation and genuine fondness. You get the impression that Greg enjoys telling you about this disaster - there’s no malice in Greg as he good humouredly explains how close he came to making it in Hollywood before he put his name to ‘The Room’. He affectionately references audience rituals and fanfavourite scenes in a way that is so wholesome and pure that you, like Tommy, may feel a dark force in you call out to Babyface to be your best friend.
If ‘The Room’ was a test from above, Greg Sestero may have been the only man capable of coming out on top of it. Many are inspired by Tommy’s blunt, singleminded determination to crack into Hollywood, whether they want him or not. But perhaps more inspiring is that Greg, who had the look, talent and charm of a young star, might fail and laugh about it with you later.
Thank you, Greg.

Never did this audiobook lose my attention or investment.
It is so well written and narrated by Greg, and his Tommy impressions definitely made me laugh. There is a truly unique writing style that just draws you deeper into this captivating story.
