Here is a refreshingly honest look at modern life, and how to get out of living it. Rhys has lived his entire life with a backdrop of dread. As a child, the sentence he feared most was 'come downstairs and say hello.' Age 5 he feigned injury to avoid dancing at a wedding, and 25 years later, he celebrated when the venue set on fire moments before what would've been the biggest gig of his life. This book is a guide to life from someone who doesn't want to do anything, and an exploration of why you possibly shouldn't either. Part comic memoir, part essay collection, join Rhys as he avoids not just social engagements but big life milestones too, like getting married and having children.
