Recenzii
Very funny, very moving - Adam Kay has done it again, the talented c***. PS sorry for swearing in this quote
Adam Kay is at the top of his game here. Even his footnotes are funnier than most comedians' best gags. But there is darkness here, too, and he handles it so well I had to lay the book aside until my heart was ready for the rest.
Every bit as funny as the first one, every bit as powerful, surprising and unflinching
I don't think anyone has made me laugh so much about the human body as Adam Kay, while simultaneously bestowing the gift of impotent rage at the state of the NHS
Spectacularly brilliant
A gaspingly honest, hilarious and heartbreaking book from one of Britain's funniest writers
The anecdotes are hilarious, the personal life fascinating, the insights into our health service compelling.
Extraordinary... super-readable, funny and disturbing.
Equally frank and funny as its predecessor.
Hilarious... such is (Adam Kay's) craft and candour that you find yourself simultaneously guffawing and welling up.
A funny, truthful and fascinating memoir.
Richly comic. Kay's writing is a constant pleasure.
Piercingly funny... breathtakingly sad.
Fantastic. Everything you could want in a book.
The reason Adam Kay sells millions of books is not because he used to be a doctor, it's because he writes so well. Undoctored is another triumph; funny and moving and thoughtful.
Thank you, Adam Kay [...] for your courage, candour, wit (and filth, of course) in your brilliant new memoir. Undoctored really is fantastic.
Extraordinary... combining laugh-out-loud material with serious questions. - The Sunday Times
