Moab is my Washpot by Stephen Fry

This is Stephen Fry’s wonderful autobiography, covering the first twenty years of his life with excursions into philosophy and everything else you can imagine. He is almost excruciatingly honest about his experiences and his feelings, and the sense that here is an essentially humble man comes through even though he is absolutely frank about what a genius he is. It’s not a light, fun read, but well worth the effort.
