书籍简介

鲍勃·莫蒂默的生活一直很幸福，直到2015年他突然被诊断出患有心脏病，需要立即手术，并被迫取消了即将到来的巡演。这一插曲让他感到不安，但迫使他反思自己迄今为止的生活。这是他令人捧腹和感动的回忆录《遥望》的框架...

虽然他在米德尔斯堡的童年从表面上看是正常的，但由于失去了父亲，以及他自己的各种不幸经历（现在由于他在《我会对你撒谎吗》中的出现而声名狼藉），从烧毁家里的房子到成立一个短命的朋克乐队Dog Dirt。成年后，他接受了律师培训并搬到了伦敦。虽然他做得很好（在一次成功的判决后，南伦敦新闻社曾加冕他为 "蟑螂王"），但20世纪80年代在一家酒吧与一位名叫维克·里维斯的年轻喜剧演员的一次偶然相遇，使他的生活走上了不同的轨道。而现在，六年过去了，曾经威胁到他事业的心脏病反而使他在BBC2的《去钓鱼》中获得了新的成功。

温馨、深刻、不可抗拒的搞笑，《遥望......》是鲍勃完整的人生故事（此外还夹杂了一些谎言）。

Bob Mortimer's life was trundling along happily until suddenly in 2015 he was diagnosed with a heart condition that required immediate surgery and forced him to cancel an upcoming tour. The episode unnerved him, but forced him to reflect on his life so far. This is the framework for his hilarious and moving memoir, And Away...

Although his childhood in Middlesbrough was normal on the surface, it was tinged by the loss of his dad, and his own various misadventures (now infamous from his appearances on Would I Lie to You?), from burning down the family home to starting a short-lived punk band called Dog Dirt. As an adult, he trained as a solicitor and moved to London. Though he was doing pretty well (the South London Press once crowned him 'The Cockroach King' after a successful verdict), a chance encounter in a pub in the 1980s with a young comedian going by the name Vic Reeves set his life on a different track. And now, six years on, the heart condition that once threatened his career has instead led to new success on BBC2's Gone Fishing.

Warm, profound, and irrepressibly funny, And Away... is Bob's full life story (with a few lies thrown in for good measure.)
