  15. Moab Is My Washpot by Stephen Fry I'm a big fan of Stephen Fry's, he's a very intelligent, funny man. But this is a real warts and all account of the first 20 years of his life and at times I felt rather uncomfortable with just how much he bared his soul. It takes a great deal of courage (and quite a lot of self-absorption) to be as honest and detailed about yourself as Stephen is in this book. There were quite a few times I really felt, 'Too much detail.' I think I would find his revelations as an adult far easier and less painful to read than those of a confused and rebellious child who felt so different from everyone else. But his writing is so witty and clever. You can imagine just how much he would have annoyed his teachers with his verbal gymnastics. And describing one of his father's inventions ....
