Opération animal de compagnie. Couplets charmants et délicieux

Le faux-guide de coaching en version collector ""Sois toi-même", "reste vrai·e", et surtout "crois en tes rêves"... On a tous et toutes lu un jour ce genre de conseil qui, quand ça ne va pas très bien, donne envie de courir tout droit dans une baie vitrée. Car, oui, la vie est un poil plus compliquée qu'un poncif sur le bonheur. J'ai donc décidé d'aborder dans ce livre les vraies questions du quotidien : comment savoir si la personne qui vous court après avec un couteau est un serial killer ? Faut-il se faire pousser une moustache pour demander une augmentation à son boss ? Autant de réponses que vous trouverez dans cet ouvrage et qui vous aideront, je l'espère, à affronter ce monde hostile. " Dans cet ouvrage qui retrace son parcours et intègre des anecdotes personnelles, des tutos et des conseils pratiques, Alison Wheeler détourne les codes des témoignages lifestyle des célébrités pour en souligner l'absurdité ! A propos de l'autrice Comédienne, ALISON WHEELER est une artiste protéiforme qui épice son humour noir d'autodérision, d'un féminisme féroce et d'une joyeuse absurdité. Elle officie désormais sur Quotidien où elle présente deux chroniques hebdomadaires aussi caustiques qu'irrévérencieuses. " Délicieusement irrévérencieux". Grazia " L'antiguide de la femme idéale".

You guys really are the axis of evil', our guide splutters over his stein of beer in the Pyongyang duck restaurant. 'You're always leaning out of the windows and taking photographs when I tell you not to.' In an age of plastic knives on planes, Tony Wheeler can make the extraordinary daim of having visited all the rogue countries currently on newsreaders' Iips. Bad Lands is a witty first-hand account of his travels through some of the most repressive and dangerous regimes in the world: Afghanistan, Albania, Burina (Myanmar), Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea and Saudi Arabia. Taking into account each country's attitude to human rights, terrorism and foreign policy, he asks 'what makes a country truly evil?' and 'how bad is really bad?', all the while engaging with a colourful cast of locals and hapless tour guides, ruminating on history and debunking popular myths. Written by the founder of Lonely Planet, this fascinuting account of life in these closed-off countries will appeal to anyone with an interest in the state of the world today.

Travelling along the infamous "Axis of Evil" led to Tony Wheeler's Bad Lands now he's going deeper into the world's darkest corners to explore a rogue's gallery of troubled nations. Every country has its problems, but some problems seem so vexed, so intractable, so absurd, you can only shake your head. Tony Wheeler trains his well-travelled eyes on some of these places and attempts to understand how things got so messed up. Along the way he gets stoned (with the thrown variety) in Palestine, scores a speeding ticket in Zimbabwe, gets arrested for photographing a bar in the Congo, and visits Osama bin Laden's Abbottabad in Pakistan. Join Tony and find out if there's a happily-ever-after in these tales from the dark side.
