Graham Norton has been entertaining audiences and having fun with some of the world's biggest stars for nearly 20 years. He is loved across the nation for his delight in the peculiar and for his ability to find humour and a common ground in all that life brings.

The Life and Loves of a He Devil is Graham's funny and honest memoir on the theme of love. As he shows, it's really the things you love that make you who you are and so Graham tells his story from his Irish childhood to the present day, describing just what and who he loved - and sometimes lost - as a young boy, and his new loves and obsessions - big and small - as he's grown older. It's been 10 years since his last book and, being a decade older, Graham has come to realise that what makes a life interesting is less what happens to you and more what inspires and drives you, what you love....

From Dolly Parton and dogs to wine and Ireland, Graham tells of his life and loves with characteristic humour and outrageous candour.

Hilariously funny

Reviewed in Australia on 22 June 2020

The first few chapters about his dogs were hysterical, do not read on public transport. A very well written book with interesting stories and insights. Loved reading all the anecdotes about the famous people as well as Graham's early life in Ireland. Thoroughly recommend.

Funny, candid, poignant - this book is just as good if not better than his last one. He reveals loads about himself & there are a few juicy snippets about the stars he interviews too. So easy to read because graham Norton is just so likeable. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed the first chapter about the dogs. Had a good old laugh. But have to say I much prefer his novels. I think he's a fabulous novelist

A little light reading

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 August 2017

Verified Purchase

After several weeks of crawling through a book I wasn't enjoying, I needed a quick read - something light, fluffy, and Graham Norton seemed the man for the job. I won't suggest in any way that this is a work of great literary merit, but if you like Norton, it's a way of picking up a bit more about the man, his life, and his attitude to the world. It's not a conventional autobiography - I believe he's already done one of those - more a collection of essays on themes.

When somebody is professionally funny, often with a large script-writing team behind them, their book could be a terrible disappointment or so painfully, self-consciously attempting to make you laugh that it just makes you cringe. Norton doesn't do that. The voice is authentic, the self-doubt and self-deprecation seems genuine, and he reveals enough of his weakness (alcohol, unsuitable men) and family pride to make you think he's a good guy on the page as well as on your screen

Enormously readable guide to the important things in Graham's life. Warm, witty, sharp, self-aware, funny - just like Graham

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 April 2016

Verified Purchase

I loved this every bit as much as I hoped I would. Rather than a conventional 'then I did this' structure covering the ten years of his life since his first autobiography So Me, Graham has structured this around the things that make up his life.

So Chapter 1 is Dogs, the dogs of his childhood, and his two happily still current dogs, blonde labradoodle Bailey and ginger ex-rescue terrier mix Madge. Bailey is on the cover, with his head at Graham's shoulder on the bed I thought 'Oh he's not as big as I expected' ... then I realised he was lying, not sitting. He's big.
Graham takes us through his life through Ireland, New York, Divas, Men, Work, Booze and a summary of his top picks for Room 101, Things I Love To Hate.
It's very amusing, Graham writes as he speaks, which is very, very well indeed and you never have a sense of not hearing his genuine voice.

He is a bit of a he-devil, yes, but also a caring and thoughtful person, exactly the person you want to give you a balanced view of a thorny personal problem. No wonder his problem page and radio agony aunt spot, Grill Graham, are so successful. A lovely, funny, warm and thoughtful read.

Thanks, Graham.

Owners of Labradoodle Puppies beware

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 February 2019

Verified Purchase

How can you not love the first chapter of this book by Graham Norton telling the hilarious stories of his labradoodle puppy Bailey. Well perhaps if you are reading it while your incredibly cute 14 week old labradoodle puppy lies at your feet asleep. Labradoodle puppies come in different sizes, mine is in the "have you seen the size of his paws" category. Not to worry, I dream of the time when he will be a well trained large adult dog instantly obeying my every command. Then I read this first chapter with every funny story tinged with sheer terror thinking surely my dog won't do that!

So I can happily recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good read but for relaxed owners of labradoodle puppies, then it may not be for you!

Bland so didn’t finish it

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 February 2022

Verified Purchase

Well I wouldn’t say I was a massive fan of Graham Norton but I felt his autobiography would be funny and a little deeper than a shallow puddle after a heatwave!

I ended up not finishing it which is most unlike me. However I was in a bit of a general niggly mood for the few days I read it in bed. As I read, the more I actually disliked this person! I know we can’t all be friends with everyone but if writing about yourself at least try to cover up the fact that you are a bit of a conceited self centred knob! Too much?

I really loved the beautiful way Graham speaks about Madonna,Liza Minnelli,and a few more icons,I love his show and his other shows and now I see he is not the acerbic man I thought him.Having had a similar background growing up I know what he means when he talks about age changing our perspectives.That you so much Graham for the book that had me crying and laughing.....
