The hugely versatile author, comedian and podcaster David Baddiel has recently published a searingly honest, funny and moving family memoir which exposes his mother’s idiosyncratic sex life and his father’s dementia to the same affectionate scrutiny.
On the surface, David Baddiel’s childhood was fairly standard: that of a lower-middle-class Jewish family living in an ordinary house in Dollis Hill, north-west London. But all was not as it seemed…
Matt Stadlen talks to Baddiel about a story that is at times tender, sweet and sad… but one in which laughter is a permanent presence. A brilliant memoir from a brilliant thinker.
