Marian Keyes: My (not so) Perfect Life

Alan Yentob meets Marian Keyes to explore her incredible journey from hard-partying waitress to best-selling author and everything she's learned about life, love and storytelling.

Author Marian Keyes is loved and admired the world over for her darkly comic and confessional writing. Her novels, which are often described as comedy romance or chick lit, draw on her own experience of growing up in a rowdy Irish Catholic family, her struggles with alcohol addiction and depression and the quest to find her very own Mr Right in the shape of her husband, Tony. Alan Yentob meets Marian to explore her incredible journey from hard-partying waitress to internationally best-selling author and everything that she's learnt about life, love and story-telling along the way.
