Description

Russell Manufacturer discovered in early stages to create a laugh of disappointment and anxiety. From the troubled youth in Essex, England, to his descent into addictions to drugs, alcohol, and gender in the seamy underbelly of London, Manufacturer has seen his share of both and amazingly lived to inform the story. In My Own Booky Wook he brings readers on a journey through his devastating college job, his notorious tricks on MTV, and his multifarious erotic activities. But this memoir is just a tale not merely of battle but also of payoff, a testament to the problem of finding what you would like from life and the power of the bloody-minded determination to obtain it.
