Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Every single one of Stephen Fry's ties - whether floral, fluorescent, football themed; striped or spotty, outrageous or simply debonair - tells an intimate tale about a moment in Stephen's life.

Inspired by Stephen's hugely popular Instagram posts, this book will celebrate his expansive collection of man's greatest clothing companion: the tie, in all it's sophisticated glory.

Distinctively funny and offering witty asides, facts and personal stories, this book will make the perfect gift for anyone who has ever worn a tie.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Amazing book

Was intrigued by this, wondering how you could write a book about ties? But Stephen never fails to impress me, and this delightful book is full of fun and historical facts about how he came about his vast collection of neckwear.

Bravo Stephen, another winner 👔

Love Stephen, Sartorial sickness.

Stephen is a delight as always. The content pains with my working class sensibilities.

Fun and easy listen

Stephen Fry is always a pleasure to listen to and while I wasn’t sure what I’d make of a book about ties, I found found it fun and easy to listen to, filled with lots of Stephen’s typical style of interesting anecdotes.

Strangely fascinating

Stephen Fry can talk about anything and I'd quite happily listen along. I bet he could make his shopping list into a novel and make it enjoyable and engaging. This man is an absolute national treasure.
