Disgusting Bliss: The Brass Eye of Chris Morris

Disgusting Bliss: The Brass Eye of Chris Morris – Lucien Randall – ISBN 978-1-84737-138-6

I love pretty much everything that Chris Morris has done and was really looking forward to this book. I imagined it would provide an insight into this private man but I finished feeling that I didn’t really know much more than I’d learnt about him previously.

Granted there is quite a bit on his childhood, early life and early career but the interviews with people who know and work with him are largely presented as sound bites and often are culled from other sources. I knew from the blurb that there wasn’t to be too much from Morris himself although the author did get his approval to approach the people in the Morris-sphere.

It focuses on his work up to the Brass Eye special and ultimately was a good read for Morris fans but will probably leave you a bit unfulfilled.
