Summary

This is a compilation of readings from the book of the same name by the co-creator of the comedy series, Knowing Me, Knowing You. Iannucci proffers his inaccurate insights into science, the arts, and such topics as the first fist-fight on the moon, an official history of noises, the war between savoury eaters and the sweet-toothed peoples, and the existence of nonsense.

Facts and Fancies is read by Armando Iannucci.

Laugh-out-loud nonsense

Daft, very clever and far too short. This is one of the audiobooks I expect to enjoy a good few times.
