In his early thirties, Stephen Fry - writer, comedian, star of stage and screen - had, as they say, 'made it'. Much loved in 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie', 'Blackadder' and 'Jeeves and Wooster', author of a critically acclaimed and bestselling first novel, 'The Liar', with a glamorous and glittering cast of friends, he had more work than was perhaps good for him.
What could possibly go wrong?
Well, as the 80s drew to a close, he discovered a most enjoyable way to burn the candleat both ends, and took to excess like a duck to breadcrumbs. Writing and recording by day, haunting a never-ending series of celebrity parties, drinking dens and poker games by night, in a ludricrous and impressive act of bravado, he fooled all those except the very closest to him, some of whom were most enjoyably engaged in the same dance.
He was, to all intents and purposes, a high-functioning addict. Blazin brightly and partying wildly as the 80s turned to 90s - AIDS became an epidemic and politics turned really nasty - he was so busy, so distracted by the high life, that he could hardly see the ievarible, headlong tumble that mus surely follow...
Containing raw, electric extracts from his diaries of the time, 'More Fool Me' is a brilliant, eloquent account by a man driven to create and to entertain - revealing a side to him he has long kept hidden.
