JULIAN'S
SECOND NOVEL
OUT IN PAPERBACK JUNE 10
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: SUNDAY EXPRESS
Witty Clary is no drag... Consistently triumphant as an author.
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.

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."
