Praise for Never Hit a Jellyfish with a Spade
"A collection of daily drolleries . . . Full of short takes with a great deal of no-nonsense (well, maybe a little nonsense) charm."
Publishers Weekly
"This laugh-out-loud little essay collection serves up offbeat assistance. . . . Browning’s sophisticated humor makes this a winner."
—Library Journal, starred review
"Brilliant. . . . . Everyday matters are skewered with deadpan style and deadly accuracy."
—Sunday Times (London)
Guy Browning writes the popular “How to . . .” column for the UKÂ's Guardian magazine, and he has hosted his own radio show called Small Talk on the BBC. He describes his writing as “the humor of being ambushed by the truth.” He is a business consultant who specializes in creativity.
