  “KnoWhutImean?!” For millions, that one unforgettable phrase defined a generation of laughter—and the man behind it was so much more than Ernest P. Worrell. 
  In this comprehensive biography, Jim Varney’s nephew Justin Lloyd pulls back the curtain on the complex, wildly talented actor who became a pop culture icon. From his early days in Kentucky dreaming of Shakespeare to becoming a beloved fixture in homes across America, Jim’s journey is full of heart, humor, and heartbreak. 
  		*Exclusive bonus content, including John Cherry’s behind-the-scenes insights and a candid conversation with Loney Hutchins 
  		*Never-before-heard stories from family and close friends 
  		*The real story behind the Nashville ad agency that accidentally launched a legend 
  		*Jim’s internal battle to break free from Ernest—and the roles that showed even more of what he could do 
  More than just the man in the denim vest, Jim Varney was a classically trained actor, a gifted writer of poems and songs, a Shakespeare-inspired creator of his own sonnets, and the descendant of coal miners who never lost touch with his Appalachian roots. From Ernest Goes to Camp to Toy Story, this is the full picture of a life that burned bright and ended far too soon. 
  "The Importance of Being Ernest" is the biography Ernest fans have been waiting for.

  ‘A riveting read that skips along at pace. Illuminating and concerning, it lifts the lid on the tawdry world of Westminster powerbroking’ Tim Shipman, The Times 
  YOU THINK YOU LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE THE ELECTED ARE CHOSEN BY THE PEOPLE. 
  THINK AGAIN. 
  When Boris Johnson came to power in 2019, he did so with the largest Conservative majority since Margaret Thatcher. Rewriting the political map, he united a party and shattered Labour’s fabled red wall. And yet, just three years later, he was ousted by the same members who had once greeted his leadership so rapturously. 
  What had gone so wrong? 
  The Plot is the seismic, fly-on-the-wall account of how the saviour of the Conservative Party became a pariah. Told with unparalleled access, from multiple inside sources talking with astonishing candour, it reveals the shocking truth about powerful forces operating behind the scenes in the heart of Westminster and those who became the architects of a Prime Minister’s downfall. 
  This is the story of a damning trail of treachery and deceit fuelled by an obsessive pursuit of power, which threatens to topple the very fabric of our democracy. 
  The Plot is a non-fiction biography that takes readers on a journey through the labyrinth of political parties, ideologies, and the heads that govern them. Penned by Sunday Times bestselling author Nadine Dorries, it's a revealing look at the corruption and misconduct that often goes unnoticed. 
  For fans of Rory Stewart (Politics On the Edge), and Barbra Streisand (My Name is Barbra).

  ‘The game isn’t what it seems from the outside. The game isn’t quite what I was expecting. The game doesn’t always work like the people on television think it does. The game is better, worse and stranger than you can imagine, and that is coming from someone who saw it all with their own eyes.’ 
  Ever wondered what really goes on inside a Premier League dressing room, what it’s like to train under Roy Hodgson, Roberto Mancini and Fabio Capello – and what happens when you kick a sandwich at one of them? 
  When it comes to football, former Manchester City and England star Micah Richards has seen it all – and laughed about most of it. In The Game, Micah shares his funniest and frankest stories from on and off the pitch, be it arriving at his first England training session with two left boots, attempting to supervise the infamous Mario Balotelli or winding up Roy Keane on Super Sunday. From how he spent his first Premier League paycheque and how he prepared – financially and mentally – for the day they stopped coming, to the euphoria of lifting the Premier League trophy and the physical and emotional impact of injury, Micah reflects openly on the many wins and losses in professional football. 
  Full of Micah’s signature cheeky wit, this intimate, unmissable memoir goes behind the scenes of the beautiful game and a remarkable life and career. 
  In this riveting autobiography, Micah Richards delves into the personal growth he experienced in the world of soccer, a sport that is as much a performing art as it is a recreation. His journey to success, filled with both wins and losses, is a testament to his resilience and determination. 
  For fans of Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), Ian Wright (A Life in Football), Guillem Balagué (Maradona), Gary Neville (The People's Game), and Mark Noble (Boleyn Boy).
