Paul Howard's new book I Read The News Today Oh Boy set for release
The new book looks at the extraordinary life and times of the Irish aristocrat who inspired the Beatles' greatest song.
Paul Howard (pictured above on the right with Declan Lynch) is the multi-award-winning journalist, author and comedy writer who is best known in Ireland as the creator of Ross O'Carroll-Kelly.
Paul has interviewed more than one hundred people who knew Tara Browne - "the quintessential young fop, often seen wandering around the streets alone, eating caviar from a jar with his finger" - in order to build up a detailed account of the man who inspired one of the Beatles' most famous and experimental songs. Interviews include Tara's widow Nicki and his brother Garech and they piece together the extraordinary story of his life.
I Read The News Today Oh BOy is out on October 20 and available to pre-order from www.amazon.com
