Very British Problems: The Most Awkward One Yet
Autor Rob Temple Ilustrat de Andrew Wightmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 oct 2020
*Watched in horror as someone helps themselves to the last roast potato?
*Broken out in hives at the suggestion that you 'Introduce yourself...' over Zoom?
*Been extra dramatic while rubbing in the shop's hand sanitiser, so everyone knows how thoroughly decent you are?
. . . then you may be suffering from VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS
Very British Problems are sweeping the nation like never before. They are in our homes, in our Zoom calls, in the queue for the supermarket, in our schools, cafés, parks, rivers, cities, towns, villages, glove boxes, sock drawers . . Basically, they're inescapable. There is no vaccine. There is no cure. So there we have it, we're stuck with the malady of Britishness for the foreseeable. Nightmare, isn't it?
Ah, well. Could be worse.
Not quite sure how, though, off the top of my head. Any thoughts?

Recenzii
Had us guffawing into our Earl Grey tea
My favourite twitter account at the moment is Very British Problems (@soverybritish) . . . it makes me laugh out loud.
Hilarious
Temple pays affectionate and comic homage to the sheer quirkiness of being British
A corking Christmas stocking filler
'Hilarious' Daily Express
There's an epidemic sweeping the nation
Symptoms include:
*Acute embarrassment at the mere notion of 'making a fuss'
*Extreme awkwardness when faced with any social greeting beyond a brisk handshake
*An unhealthy preoccupation with meteorology
Doctors have also reported several cases of unnecessary apologising and an obsessive interest in correct queuing etiquette. If you have experienced any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS.
VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS are highly contagious. There is no known cure.
Rob Temple's tea-spillingly funny book, inspired by the incredible @soverybritish Twitter phenomenon, reveals all the ways in which we are a nation of socially awkward but well-meaning oddballs, struggling to make it through every day without saying sorry to an inanimate object. Take comfort in misfortunes of others. You are not alone.
Now updated with more mildly amusing weather-based jokes.
