05/09/13: Mark Lawson – Going Out Live (2002)

Extremely witty satire about a broadcaster whose personal and professional life starts to fall apart. Being a BBC broadcaster himself, Lawson obviously knows his stuff and it's tempting to read this novel autobiographically. However, that would understate how creatively and imaginatively he takes this raw material and shapes it into a genuinely funny and insightful look at celebrity, the media and identity.
