The bestselling book of 2008, now available in paperback
Paul O'Grady first came to fame in the guise of Lily Savage, and was nominated for a Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 1991. Lily later became a regular on This Morning, took over the bed on The Big Breakfast and presented Blankety Blank. Paul, of course, went on to further success presenting his chat shows on Channel 4 and ITV, For the Love of Dogs and Animal Orphans on ITV, and his weekly show on BBC Radio 2, inter alia. His four volumes of autobiography - At My Mother's Knee, The Devil Rides Out, Still Standing and Open the Cage, Murphy - are all Sunday Times bestsellers.
One of the most brilliantly observed testimonies to working-class
life I've ever read
*Mirror*
Funny, well observed and recognisably human. Soon you start to
wonder why all celebrity autobiographies can't be like this
*Private Eye*
Among the three-for-two slew of sleb lit heaped on the tables of
the nation's major bookshops... At My Mother's Knee distinguishes
itself on every level
*Observer*
Paul speaks with warmth and hilarity about a childhood filled with
poverty. Hugely interesting and entertaining
*Heat*
While most celeb memoirs are as memorable as an air kiss, O'Grady's
is a proper snog
*Scotsman*
Warmly funny, dry and mischievous... Genuine - and brilliant
*Daily Mail*
