Frank Skinner on the Road by Frank Skinner

4.0

Do you know what I really liked about Frank Skinner: On the Road ? His reflections on his Catholic faith. The dirty jokes you'd expect from Skinner are there. The insight into the comic performers world promised by the book's summary is there. But there is every so often a few pages of him thinking and contemplating the religious realm. In most books by comedians you find yourself waiting for more jokes and classic bits. But here, I found myself really enjoying the quite moments in between. I guess, if anything, I would have been interested in seeing Skinner balance these two sides of his personality: the dirty comic and the tortured catholic. Maybe next time.
