Look Back in Hunger

Jo Brand is one of Britain''s funniest and best-loved comedians. With a sharp eye for the absurd and in her own unique voice, she tells her story for the first time.

What possessed her to become a professional comedian in the cut-throat world of stand-up comedy after ten years as a psychiatric nurse? How did she deal with late night drunken audiences? From her early years growing up in a small south coast town with two brothers who toughened her up, to emerging on stage as ''The Sea Monster'', Jo Brand tells it like it is with wit and candour.
