Witty, tender and daring essays from the British David Sedaris

'A lovely writer: supple, stylish and almost effortlessly witty.' Daily Mail

'Made me laugh out loud and then properly cry.' Jennie Godfrey

When it comes to the challenge of being a man, Adam Farrer always seems to find a way to fall short...

Broken Biscuits vividly recounts Adam's struggles to live up to masculine expectations, real or imagined. From the calamity of his first serious relationship to an obsession with Prince that sees everyone questioning his sexuality, and from the repercussions of his adult circumcision to his doubts about his ability to survive the apocalypse, this candid and personal collection of essays is astonishingly far-reaching and riotously funny.

Holding up a mirror to Adam's own body image, his relationship with his family, his sense of self-worth and the mortifying experience of arriving at a teenage party wearing strawberry-patterned short shorts, this book is about growing up and trying to define yourself as a man but somehow always missing the mark.
