About this listen
Random House presents the audiobook edition of Straight Outta Crawley, written and read by Romesh Ranganathan.
At the age of 9, Romesh Ranganathan delivered his first ever stand-up set at a Pontin's Holiday Camp talent competition, smashing the only other competitor, a young girl playing the kazoo.
The gig went so well that Romesh retired his comic genius for twenty two years, hiding behind the guise of a maths teacher, before finally revealing himself again (no, not like that) at the tender age of 31. In 2010, Ranganathan staged his epic comeback gig to an almost silent room, and has since gone on to earn his place as the most in-demand overweight vegan Sri Lankan comedian in Britain.
Now, for the first time, he tells the full story of how he got here. From the delights of Sri Lankan hospitality to the race riots of Crawley and the horrors of vegan cheese, this is Ranganathan's hilarious autobiography.

Loved It.
Wish it went on longer. Cant wait for the sequel if there is one. Romesh is hilarious. Someone id love to have a beer with. the book is easy to follow, stories involving laugh out loud moments with the sick and twisted wit any fan of comedy would enjoy.

An interesting insight into Romesh's life; full of funny anecdotes and tangents. Really enjoyed listening to this book while on holiday. Kept me entertained. 10/10 would recommend.

Very funny
Really enjoyed the book, I find Romesh hilarious. I did kind of come away with a bit of a complex though. After all the parallels of how I feel about myself, can’t help but feel like a massive loser after reading that 🤣
