IS IT JUST ME OR IS EVERYTHING SHIT ? : THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MODERN LIFE

Book ID/图书代码: 07980005B08526

English Summary/英文概要: If you hate: loft living; bar-clubs; Tony Blair; chick lit; global warming sceptics; Keane; loyalty cards; IKEA; Kabbalah; bling and Richard Curtis...

... then you need IS IT JUST ME OR IS EVERYTHING SHIT? - an encylopedic attack on modern culture and the standard reference work for everyone who believes everything is shit. Which it is. This book is for the large percentage of the population interested in saying NO to the phoney ideas, cretinous people, useless products and doublespeak that increasingly dominate our lives. This book is designed for everyone who thinks they may have mislaid their soul in a Coffee Republic. Never before has there been a book so completely full of shit.

This very funny, well-informed, belligerent rant of a book adds up to an excoriating broadside against consumer capitalism that the authors hope will sell loads of copies.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 這本書是英國最紅的聖誕禮物書,甚至超越哈利波特。它模仿百科全書的詞條,寫出令人笑到掉淚的詮釋,充分展現豆豆先生的英國式幽默感與智慧。教人不用惺惺作態,勇敢跟新奇酷炫的玩意、大人物、根本沒啥用處的流行商品,大聲說不!(Tiffany)

Awards/获奖情况:’A life-affirming guide to the modern world’---ESQUIRE

’Extremely good ... an encyclopedia of annoying things, such as George Bush, gadget bores, penis-enlargement emails, paninis and David Bowie’s teeth’---TATLER
