From the No. 1 bestselling author of Never Hit a Jellyfish with a Spade and Office Politics, an extremely funny memoir of a magnificently eccentric upbringing shaped by a worrying obsession with cartography
Guy Browning hasn't yet made Who's Who, but he is in its slim
companion volume, What's That. As devotees of his Guardian 'How
To... ' and 'Office Politics' columns know, he is one of the
wittiest and most astute observers of life in Britain today. His
previous books include The Social Survival Handbook, Innervation,
Office Politics and Double Your Salary, Bonk Your Boss, Go Home
Early.
When he's not out and about, map in hand, he lives modestly with
his family in Kingston Bagpuize, Oxfordshire.
Witty and enjoyable....Practically every sentence has its en-suite
drollery... This book puts non-misery memoirs where they belong: on
the map
*Independent*
A humorist with a gift for absurdity, Browning's account will bring
a smile to the face of anyone born in the Sixties
*The Independent*
This good-humoured memoir charts the author's progress form his
birth in Chipping Norton to the Alps, Niagara Falls, the
Mediterranean and Central America...full of drollery, his mental
maps include his mother's version of the isle of Wight, somewhere
between the Indian Ocean and the Tasman Sea, and a hilarious
graphic representation of the destruction of his ego during a
relationship with a north Oxford girl
*The Guardian*
A hilarious biography-meets-confession-meets-travel memoir
*Arena*
Touching and very, very funny
*Pyschologies*
