Now, in his first book, he presents a blistering collection of new and newly expanded essays--including the achingly funny viral hit Things You Only Know When Both Your Parents Are Dead. In these pages, he travels to Saudi Arabia, where he acts as a perplexed bystander at a camel pageant; offers a survival guide for the modern dinner party (i.e. how to tactfully escape at the first sign of an adult board game); and gets pitted head-to-head, again and again, with an unpredictable, unpitying subspecies of Londoner: the landlord. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough it all, he shows that no matter how cruel the misfortune, how absurd the circumstance, there's always the soft punch of a lesson tucked within. This is a book for anyone who overshares, overthinks, has ever felt lost or confused--and who wants to have a good laugh about it.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53672689434897,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780525562771.jpg?v=1781520846","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-brilliant-brilliant-brilliant-brilliant-brilliant-by-joel-golby","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
