'Wry and revealing' Sunday Express
'Honest and perceptive . . . a fascinating read' Red
Gawky and socially awkward, Louis Theroux might be an unlikely television star, but his award-winning documentaries have won him millions of fans around the world. Now he turns his questioning eye on himself and wonders why do people tattoo his face on their body, and would it be wrong for him to encourage them? And are the same qualities that make him good at documentaries also making him bad at life?
Insightful and funny, Gotta Get Theroux This takes us from Louis' anxiety-prone childhood to an unexpectedly successful career that has seen him immersed in the weird worlds of paranoid US militias and secretive pro-wrestlers, get under the skin of celebrities and take his life in his hands investigating American prisons.
As Louis woos his beautiful wife Nancy and learns how to be a father, he also dares to take on the powerful Church of Scientology. Just as challenging is the revelation that one of his old subjects, Jimmy Savile, was a secret sexual predator, prompting him to reflect on the nature of evil he has spent decades uncovering.
