About this listen

Spectator World Book of the Year 2022

The heart-warming memoir from British jewellery and silverware designer, Theo Fennell.

From the depths of financial despair to the glittering celebrity world of the rich and famous, Theo Fennell's journey has been anything but predictable. With humour, candour and self-depreciation, Fennell charts the highs and lows of his remarkable career, from dealing with hardened criminals to designing for Elton John, Lady Gaga and Madonna.

Critic reviews

"There's no one quite like Theo Fennell. Relive the high spots of a life crowded, as Lady Bracknell would say, with incident. Our hero Theo, while without fail making an improbable and preposterous arse of himself in every direction, always manages somehow to emerge from each adventure ruefully triumphant. I ripped through I Fear For This Boy like a train, snorting with laughter and delight as I rattled along, pulled by the power of Fennell's unique story-telling genius.... I can't recommend the ride highly enough." (Stephen Fry)

"Fennell has produced one of the funniest books I have ever read. Utterly beguiling and superbly well-written, it will become a classic of the genre." (William Boyd)

"As funny as one of my books. I almost couldn't put it down. Theo's book is as funny as Theo - a rare achievement." (Barry Humphries)

Absolute gem!

This book is one of the best I’ve read/listened to in a long time! Theo has a wonderful sonorous voice and I laughed out loud often hearing him tell his absurd tales. Highly recommend if you want something interesting and fun.

So damn funny

The faux obliviousness and clever autobiographical prose of this story were an unexpected delight! It came recommended from a famous British actor on Instagram, and I’m super glad I decided to actually listen to this gem from a random British jewelry designer. I can imagine the rapt audience when this guy spins stories at dinner parties.
