Random House presents the audiobook edition of Straight Outta Crawley, written and read by Romesh Ranganathan.

At the age of 9, Romesh Ranganathan delivered his first ever stand-up set at a Pontin’s Holiday Camp talent competition, smashing the only other competitor, a girl performing the kazoo.

The gig went so well that Romesh retired his comic genius for twenty two years, hiding behind the guise of a maths teacher, before finally revealing himself again (no, not like that) in the tender age of 31. In 2010 2010, Ranganathan staged his epic return gig to an nearly silent space, and provides since gone to earn his place as the most in-demand over weight vegan Sri Lankan comedian in Britain.

Now, for the first time, he tells the entire tale of how he got right here. From your delights of Sri Lankan hospitality towards the competition riots of Crawley and the horrors of vegan cheese, that is Ranganathan’s hilarious autobiography.
