Book excerpt: 'It's a wildly satisfying and moving read ... I loved this special book' - Graham NortonSix years ago, Jo was about to go on stage when she found out that her sister Annie had cancer. Not the best way to start a nationwide comedy tour, but what transpired was a cathartic journey for both sisters as they revisited their childhood and adolescence.Annie was witty, spiky and greedy for life, rushing to be 'interesting' and experience adventures. She travelled the world and became a screenwriter and broadcaster.Jo was equally rebellious but didn't have a plan. She just wanted to be interesting like her big sister and thought it might involve eyeliner, smoking and being in a band.The Funny Thing About Death... charts the lives of two unconventional girls raised in the 1970s who did not fit in to the Air Force bases where they were raised or the convent school they attended. It's flippant and frank - all the things Jo's fans love her for - and a touching account of the love between two sisters.
