He had no idea he would go on to become a national treasure. Here at last, Sir Lenny Henry tells the revealing and very funny story of his rise to fame.<br/> <br/><br/> <br/><br/> Surviving a tough family upbringing, along with the trauma of finding out the truth about his father at a young age, Lenny beat the odds. With a riotous warmth and his trademark energy, in <br/> <i>Who Am I, Again?</i> he tells the heart-breakingly honest and inspirational story of his youth.<br/>
