About this listen

Does your life feel like a dress rehearsal? Do you long to enter the limelight and steal the show? But what do you do when you're playing second fiddle to an arrogant actor who barely knows your name? And, more importantly, what do you do when you find yourself falling in love with his wife?

Excellent narration & wonderfully funny. David Nicholls’ observations of human behaviours and vulnerabilities are at their peak in this book.

Hilarious especially the metaphors!
