In ALAN PARTRIDGE: NOMAD, Alan dons his boots, windcheater and scarf and embarks on an odyssey through a place he once knew - it's called Britain - intent on completing a journey of immense personal significance.
Diarising his ramble in the form of a 'journey journal', Alan details the people and places he encounters, ruminates on matters large and small and, on a final leg fraught with danger, becomes - not a man (because he was one to start off with) - but a better, more inspiring example of a man.
This deeply personal book is divided into chapters and has a colour photograph on the front cover. It is deeply personal. Through witty vignettes, heavy essays and nod-inducing pieces of wisdom, Alan shines a light on the nooks of the nation and the crannies of himself, making this a biography that biographs the biographer while also biographing bits of Britain.
Customer Reviews
Funniest Book I Have Ever Read
I laughed out loud more times in this book than I ever did in not only any other book, but any other movie. You really get drawn into the character of Alan with this book and the way he describes people and situations is absolutely hilarious.
The most hilarious part of the book without giving away any spoilers is “The Crawl”. After you’ve read the book, go to YouTube and search for “Alan Partridge The Crawl”. It’s hysterical.
Steve. I mean, Alan. Please write more books like this. Aha!
