Title
The Ultimate Book of Heroic Failures,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Sunday Times Humour Book of the Year.Anyone can be a success, but it takes real and original genius to foul up big time. These are the alltime greats, Gods in the field of failure, surreal artists, who spurn mere drab success ('I'm a winner, Lord Sugar') to explore the vast, magical, lifeenhancing possibilities of getting it wrong. Any of us could make a mistake, but these great souls can turn the simplest everyday task into a scene of jawdropping wonder. These are the immortals.Stephen Pile, President of the Not Terribly Good Club of Great Britain and author of the numberone bestseller The Book of Heroic Failures, takes us on an allnew and mindbendingly hilarious tour to celebrate the most spectacular and absurd failures of the last twentyfive years.Failure is everywhere. There are 235 stories in total spread from the Outer Hebrides to America, Ireland, Australia, Europe and Africa. The Syrian entry, for example, holds the world allcomers record as the driver who got most lost under satnav direction (5000 miles).From the most driving test failures (959), the most pointless election (in Dakota, in which not even the mayor voted), the worst robbery (when two different sets of bank robbers struck simultaneously) and the worst mugger (who left his victim $250 better off), to the holidaying rugby team of fiftysomethings from Dorchester who, due to a mistranslation, ended up playing the top team from Romania live on state TV, this is the ultimate book to make you feel better about yourself and the world around you.The Ultimate Book of Heroic Failures fails miserably at failing to be a runaway success amongst funny books.
