The funniest book you'll read this year, written by the most relatable woman in the world, Daisy May Cooper

THE NO. 1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER A TIMES BEST COMEDY BOOK OF 2021

'Brilliant. A joy and a delight - I laughed out loud! An absolute cracker' ZOE BALL 'A riot from start to finish' DAILY MIRROR 'Hilarious' SUN 'Thank goodness for gloriously silly Daisy May Cooper. Joyful, irreverent and totally uplifting' THE TIMES 'The funniest woman on TV' GUARDIAN 'Hilarious' DAILY EXPRESS _______

'When I'm up on stage, I don't want to be anywhere else in the world'

Since I was little, I've had a cast of characters living inside my head, an over-active imagination and the urge to be a massive f**king show-off. Not only was my family completely insane, but we grew up battling rural poverty, and together with my brother Charlie, I staggered my way through adolescence like a p**sed-up butterfly.

In Don't Laugh, It'll Only Encourage Her, I'll take you on a rollercoaster ride so extreme it'll make you laugh, then cry, then barf your guts up.

From my misspent childhood skulking around car boot sales to reimagining WWE Smackdowns for a Cirencester audience; from my one-armed internet boyfriend to a lover who doubled as a coat-stand; from snogging a pole at a lap-dancing audition to imitating a warthog at RADA to finally having This Country commissioned by the BBC.

And, I answer all of life's great mysteries . . .

Can wall plaster be part of your five-a-day? Can the afterlife be found in the back of a sh**ty pub? How do you give your tits added drama? Who dropped the monster turd at the fake audition? How much of a humiliating, ridiculous, screw-up of a sh**-storm life do you need to have led before you finally achieve your dream . . . ?

Brilliant. A joy and a delight - I laughed out loud! An absolute cracker -- Zoe Ball Hilarious, brutally honest and very entertaining. Bloody brilliant, like the woman herself * Heat * Cooper is casual and caustic as she looks at the bright side and the darker underbelly of showbiz * The Times * This book proves it's absurd for anybody to think they know more about being funny than Daisy May Cooper. A riot from start to finish * Daily Mirror * Hilarious. A riot from start to finish * Daily Express * Perfect for anyone who loved This Country or wants to learn about how Cooper got her break in comedy * Funny Women * Memoirs are often described as 'honest' but it's rare that someone would write as honestly as Cooper * Funny Women * The funniest book of the year * Sunday Express * Hilarious * Sun * Hilarious * Daily Star * Hilarous * YOU Magazine *
