We Need to Talk About Kevin Bridges

De: Kevin Bridges

Narrado por: Kevin Bridges

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of We Need to Talk About... Kevin Bridges. Aged 17, Kevin Bridges walked on stage for the first time and brought the house down. He only had a five-minute set but he discovered he really could earn a living from making people laugh.

Kevin began life as a shy, nerve-ridden school-boy. Reaching his teens, he followed his true calling as the class clown. This was a guy going somewhere - off the rails seeming most likely. Kevin's trademark social commentary, sharp one-liners, and laugh-out-loud humour blend with his reflections on his Glaswegian childhood and the journey he's taken to become one of the most-loved comedians of our time.

Love Kevin Bridges material

As a home sick Glasgow girl born the same year as Kevin I'm addicted to his nostalgia inducing sets. Always puts me in a great mood and helps me hold on to what's left of my accent :) Loved hearing his story and of the hard work and dedication he puts into his craft. Looking forward to future performances.

Heart warming, easy Listening and hilarious.

Thoroughly enjoyed this title while taking connector flights across the USA. Light hearted and identifiable for any young lad who grew up in the era. KB is the new Billy Connelly!

Great book

This book was great. Kevin speaks in a moving and funny way about growing up and his progression towards becoming a famous comedian.

Great story by a great storyteller

I’ve been listening to and watching Kevin for several years but knew very little of his backstory. This tale of a young man’s desire and drive to make a career out of his natural talent (instead of becoming a lorrie driver, delivering beer to comedy clubs) is a fun and interesting listen. If you are a fan of British comedy, or any comedy, I would highly recommend.

Fantastic book.

This is a prime example of why an author should read his own autobiography. Kevin's bridges has a fantastic way with words and an amazing ability to turn a mundane story into a great laugh. 12 hours of an audio book was almost like listening to 12 hours of his stand up.

Absolutely delightful!

What a delightful book! Kevin is such a great comedian. It was nice to listen to him talk about his life. I just love his accent!
