Awkward Situations for Men
1 journaler for this copy...
Picked up from McKay used books over the weekend. I love Danny Wallace, and am enjoying this one. From the back cover:
Danny Wallace is a man. And a man is a very tricky thing to be these days. An embarrassing faux pas or a bewildering social situation is always just round the corner.
And if something's going to happen...it's going to happen to Danny. He says the wrong thing about a friend's baby, for example. He accidentally follows a woman down a very dark street. He has his party gatecrashed by a minor celebrity, has an argument with a bishop, is forced to avoid his old hairdresser and finds himself reluctantly helping a lady who's got her skirt all hitched up. Well... eventually.
As we follow a year in his life it becomes obvious that here is a man who struggles even to look after himself properly. But then an even greater responsibility looms on the horizon...
Once you have read this book you will see Awkward Situations everywhere you go.

I love Danny Wallace and this book did not disappoint. I was laughing out loud at parts of it. It was originally columns, that have now been collected into a book. Some are way funnier than others, but all have the charm I've come to expect from Wallace.
