They say that being able to laugh at yourself is good for you. If that’s true, Christian Lander must be very healthy indeed. This book is a spin-off from a cult blog that takes the piss out of all the things that cultured ‘white people’ like, in mock-scientific prose, for instance: ‘Th e presence of an improper apostrophe on a menu can ruin an otherwise delicious meal for a white person.’ Categories include reading David Sedaris, bicycles, organic products, Apple Macs, arts degrees and coffee. Oh, and irony. Because, of course, Lander is a coffee-loving, bicycle-riding white person. Very funny stuff .
