John Clarke was best known as Fred Dagg in New Zealand and for ‘The Games’ and ‘Clarke and Dawe’ in Australia. He was a performer, actor, writer, satirist and commentator.
But he was also a father and a husband. In this delightful book, his daughter Lorin tells the story of growing up in the Clarke family: with John, her mother Helen, her little sister Lucia. This is the insider’s view of the million little things that define any family, not just its in-jokes or secret slang, but the triumphs and traumas that define generations.
In Would that be Funny? Lorin Clarke, author of the celebrated podcast The Fitzroy Diaries, brings her idyllic and nerdy childhood to life, and draws a fascinating portrait of the private man behind the household name.
