About the Author
Robert Twigger is a British author, poet and adventurer. After attending Oxford University he trained with the Tokyo Riot Police, which became the subject of his bestselling book Angry White Pyjamas. He has been awarded the Newdigate Prize for poetry, the Somerset Maugham Award for Literature and the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award. He led the expedition that was the first to cross the Great Sand Sea of the Egyptian Sahara solely on foot, and another that was the first to cross Western Canada in a birchbark canoe since 1793. He is the author of eight books, both fiction and non-fiction, as well as several collections of poetry. Big Snake was filmed for Channel 4.
Review
A beguiling stylist, he interleaves reminiscence and aphorism to produce something wholly original. A tour de force. -- Will Self Twigger is acute and disarming, and his book on manliness has the refreshing virtue of declining to see women as the enemy -- Robert Winder * New Statesman * If Twigger really is lamenting a passing age of masculinity, he does so in quixotic style in this amusing memoir * The Times * He is certainly very good on the allure of some male-dominated subcultures * Guardian *
