Book Review:
''eYE MARTY'' is a priceless and long-lost treasure for comedy aficionados. This is the authentic voice of Marty Feldman, the goggle-eyed genius behind some of Britain's most groundbreaking comedy shows. Completed just before his untimely death, the autobiography offers an unflinching, hilarious, and deeply personal journey through his life—from a troubled childhood to the pinnacle of comedy writing and performing. Feldman recounts his work on classics like Round the Horne and his collaborations with legends from Beyond the Fringe and Monty Python. The prose is sharp, witty, and filled with the same anarchic energy that defined his performances. More than just a memoir, it's an essential first-hand account of the British comedy revolution of the 1960s and 70s. A must-read for fans of comedy history, this book finally gives one of its most important architects the last word.
