Julian Clary's 'Briefs Encountered'
New novel published 29th March. Pre-order from Ebury Press.



Whoever said the afterlife would be easy...
Noël Coward is the toast of twenties society... a brilliant playwright, composer and entertainer whose witty songs and pithy lines don't quite tell the full story. Goldenhurst, his house in Kent, provides a place where he can be himself. And more importantly where he can be with his lover, Jack, without fear of arrest or judgement... But their romantic idyll is ruined, first by the arrival of Noel's demanding relatives and then by a mysterious death...

Many years later, film star and Coward fan Richard Stent buys the house from its current owner. But Richard has problems of his own. Goldenhurst is supposed to be a respite from all his worries but this is a house with a very rich and not always pleasant history. And more than one thing is about to go bump in the night...
A haunting tale of love, obsession and a house full of spirits, not all of them blithe...

JULIAN'S
SECOND NOVEL

The second darkly comic novel from
bestselling author JulianClary

DEVIL IN DISGUISE
by Julian Clary

REVIEW: THE TIMES
Most "celebrity" novels are garbage, but not this one. It's as camp as the proverbial row of tents, but Clary tells a very good story... Funny and absolutely charming.

REVIEW: PINK PAPER MAGAZINE
***** by Darren Scott

The question if whether Julian Clary's first attempt at novel writing was merely a lucky flash in the pan can be savagely swept aside and crushed under foot forever more because The Devil In Disguise is a sheer delight from start to finish.

I blame Clary for the bags under my eyes and my mumbling late-night mantra of "just one more chapter". And this is despite the gay character Simon - who drinks too much, sleeps around and ends up becoming a foul-mouthed drag queen - being quite abhorrent.

No, the star of the show here is his best friend Molly and the tale of her rise to fame that her gay mate has more than a hand (and a mouth) in involuntarily shaping.

Throw in Molly's mentor, the devious ex-cabaret star Lilia, and it's Showgirls meets Queer As Folk meets Baby Jane. Wonderful. www.PinkPaper.com

REVIEW: HEAT MAGAZINE

"The comedian's debut novel sold by the bucketload, and this new one is even better – a darkly funny and deeply rude triumph."
