Narrated by the man himself and written in his unmistakable tone and style, Alan Partridge: Nomad is filled with all the joie de vivre you'd expect.
In Alan Partridge: Nomad, Alan dons his boots, windcheater and scarf and embarks on an odyssey through a place he once knew - it's called Britain - intent on completing a journey of immense personal significance.
Diarising his ramble in the form of a 'journey journal', Alan details the people and places he encounters, ruminates on matters large and small and, on a final leg fraught with danger, becomes not a man (because he was one to start off with) but a better, more inspiring example of a man.
Through witty vignettes, heavy essays and nod-inducing pieces of wisdom, Alan shines a light on the nooks of the nation and the crannies of himself, making this a biography that biographs the biographer while also biographing bits of Britain.

If you could sum up Alan Partridge: Nomad in three words, what would they be?
A great achievement, but not as great of an achievement as his autobiography.What other book might you compare Alan Partridge: Nomad to and why?
Mr Partridge's autobiography, and Great New World, by Axol O'Lerpler.Which scene was your favorite?
The chapter in which Alan describes Alpha Papa.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I rarely sit for six hours, thank you very much. Of course, I sleep at night, so I am lying down for six hours, but that's really beside the point.Any additional comments?
Is this book as good as his autobiography? No. Does the Partridge still deliver a punch? Yes.Alan had a lot to live up to, as his autobiography was (and still is) excellent, and I listen to it religiously (not literally--that would be ridiculous). While Nomad is entertaining, it is just not the same. If you're new to Mr Partridge, I recommend you start with his autobiography and then listen to this. You won't be disappointed (unless you are).
