 'A social history of Britain spanning four decades, told with unflagging empathy and wit ' Jonathan Coe, Observer

THE FOURTH VOLUME OF MICHAEL PALIN'S BESTSELLING DIARIES

There and Back is a new window into the world of Michael Palin, following him as he comes and goes through the filming of four blockbuster travel documentaries and begins to publish his personal diaries for the very first time.

From TV success to writer's block, Python reunions to lunches with Alan Bennett, the sadness of losing his good friend George Harrison to the joys of welcoming his first grandchild, these diaries document a decade of highs, lows and everything in between - all with the warmth, humour and heart for which Michael is renowned.©2024 Michael Palin (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited Diaries & Journals Entertainment & Celebrities Memoirs, Diaries & Correspondence Adventure

I love Michael’s stories and how he keeps everything real and honest as he travels through the world of the movers and shakers as well as the world of the moven and shaken

Palin is brilliant

possibly purchased by mistake but had nothing to do with Michael Palin that I knew from his excellent documentaries. Mindful babblings, I could not finish and I only got a few hours into it. Recommend you do your research before purchasing.

unsure why this book was released. it is clips from his diary
