SUMMARY:AUTHOR EVENT: 'Broken Biscuits; and Other Male Failures' with Adam Farrer
DESCRIPTION:House of Books & Friends is thrilled to welcome Adam Farrer on February 17th at 6pm to discuss their paperback book\, ‘Broken Biscuits; and Other Male Failures’.

Please contact us directly at bookworms@houseofbooksandfriends.pro or call 07597365380. \nAbout the book \nBroken 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. \nAbout the author \n\n\n\nAdam Farrer is a writer\, a lecturer and the editor of the creative nonfiction journal The Real Story. He has been a photo lab technician\, an illustrator\, a ceramicist\, a musician\, a music journalist and currently works at the University of Salford\, where he is the Writer in Residence for Peel Park. His first book\, Cold Fish Soup\, won the Northbound Book Award.\n\n\n\n\n
