'This is a funny and beautiful book. What a little bastard.'
RUSSELL BRAND 'A millennial's answer to David Sedaris. No writer is
funnier than Joel Golby.' DOLLY ALDERTON A collection of
full-throated appreciations, withering assessments, and hard-won
lessons by the popular journalist. There are a few things you need
to know about Joel Golby. Both his parents are dead. His dad was an
alcoholic. He himself has a complicated relationship with alcohol.
He once went to karaoke three times in five days. He will always
beat you at Monopoly, and he will always cheat. Joel makes a name
for himself as a journalist who brings us distinguished articles
such as 'A Man Shits On A Plane So Hard It Has To Turn Around And
Come Back Again', but that says more about us than him. In his
first book, Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant
Joel writes about important stuff (death, alcohol, loss,
friendship) and unimportant stuff (Saudi Arabian Camel Pageants, a
watertight ranking of the Rocky films, Monopoly), always with the
soft punch of a lesson tucked within. Golby's sharp, evocative
prose thrives on reality and honesty that is gut-wrenchingly close
to the bone, and laced with a copious dose of dark humour. Who is
this book for? It is for everyone, but mainly people who are as
lost and confused as Joel and just want to have a good laugh about
it.
