Would The Real Gerry Ryan Please Stand Up by Gerry Ryan - Paperback

Product Information

Gerry Ryan on life, the world, the universe - and a few things besides. Here are his experiences, stories and opinions drawn from nearly thirty years of talking to the nation. It's a sharp, punchy read all told in his no-nonsense, irreverent, straight to the bone style. It's the best, the worst, the funniest, the most outrageous. And threaded through it's the story of coming of age as a broadcaster at the same time as Ireland became a truly modern country. A smart, sassy and wildly entertaining read.

From The Back Cover
Call him lamentably, admirably honest, but he wants it all out there ... He beams a pitiless searchlight on himself that few of us in any trade could handle' Irish Times

For nearly thirty years Gerry Ryan's has been the voice of Ireland going through its growing pains and coming of age. Now, the king of Irish talk radio shares his manifesto on life, the world, the universe - and a few other things besides. Here are his experiences and opinions drawn from three decades of talking to the nation. And here also is the story of a man going through his own growing pains and coming of age. Fearless, funny and fascinating, Ryan on the page is just as gripping as Ryan on the radio.

'In between the polemic, the grandstanding and the occasionally cock-eyed view of the world, there is an honesty in Would The Real Gerry Ryan Please Stand Up that will shock even the most hardened taxi-driver' Irish Daily Mail

'Writes with great insight and love about his father and his mother ... He is also very good on being a father himself and raising kids in today's world' Irish Independent
