On the subject of Alan Partridge, I highly recommend the two books, "I, Partridge" and "Nomad".
This is my Goodreads-review of Nomad:
This is one of the funniest books I have read. I just love the Alan Partridge character, with all his insecurities and petty attempts to show off. I read the first book, I Partridge, and this is even better. In Nomad, Alan tells the story of his walk to honour his father – he will walk from Norwich to the Dungeness Nuclear Power Station.
Not only is the book packed with hilarious episodes, the writing is also fabulously bad – full of examples like “the wind whistling through my hair like a wind whistle”.
Highly recommended.
