The Curious Columns of Adrian Chiles by Adrian Chiles
Adrian Chiles's weekly Guardian column has gained a cult following for his unique insights into everything from the present tense in history podcasts to his legendary at-home urinal. Chiles never misses. And his targets are the stuff of life, the everyday things we should all stop and think about a little more: favourite spoons, the correct duration of a hug, falling into a bed of wild garlic, or even discovering you have a naked doppleganger on OnlyFans. This bumper collection takes us on a brilliant, bemused tour of British life, delivering offbeat, comforting blasts of truth, humour and warmth. 'The nation's only truly good columnist' Imogen West-Knights, Slate 'It can't do you any harm' Adrian Chiles

Imagine a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist who can fit their entire column in a text message -- Ellis James, BBC 5 Live
It's rare to read a column in which so many voices feature that aren't those of the columnist, and in which the supporting cast are gladly granted all the best lines. This is why Adrian Chiles is beautiful. This is why he will never be finished -- Niall Anderson * Gawker *
