The long-awaited memoir (of sorts) from the hilariously iconic James Blunt.
This book is inspired by true events but is not a biography. The truth is My Truth is not The Truth, and that's as honest as I can be. It's partially true, rather than painfully true, and I have possibly been economical with the truth, Your Honour. Basically – I made this sh*t up.
While James's crimes against music are well documented (cue: ‘You're Beautiful’), he also has some stories that are not. In Loosely Based On A Made-Up Story, James finally reveals his most riotous anecdotes to date for your amusement (and much to his parents' horror) in this highly anticipated memoir.
From his questionable Norfolk roots, eccentric family, boarding school antics, misjudged military service and rise to music stardom, James delves into his (surprisingly) fascinating life to date.
Is everything in this book positively honest? Is it f*ck. Were certain stories distastefully blown up in an attempt to impress and entertain? Absolutely. But one thing is for certain: you won't want to miss it.
