NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND THE TIMES * AN INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
The Audacity is a brilliantly funny, fiercely honest, and dangerously astute handbook of life instruction from the star of the hit Netflix series The Duchess.
I've come to accept that being audacious is a gift I can't escape.
People know my on-stage comedy persona or my scripted ballsy characters and wrongly assume that I must stomp around all day in designer dresses eviscerating those who dare to cross my path. But mostly, I'm just eating pickles and being nice to some dogs.
Whatever strangers think of me is fine with me. How audacious is that? I can always take a joke and I don't waste time worrying about things I can't control. I embrace the reality that you just can't please everyone, so you might as well put yourself out there and have a laugh. As my mother always said, Katherine, if we all liked the same thing, we'd all be married to your father.
