Danny is back with more hilarious true-life stories of hopeless modern manhood

A husband and now a new father, Danny Wallace is a man who struggles to understand the unspoken rules of society...

For example, when do you hug? And when do you NOT hug?

How do you react when you realise that yesterday's underpants might still be in your trousers?

What do you do if you think you might have a man-crush?

And what happens when you think you may have accidentally ordered your wife a prostitute for her birthday?

Following the bestselling Awkward Situations for Man and based on his incredibly popular columns, Danny Wallace entertains us with more stories from his often embarrassing and bewildering life.

No one said it was easy being a man. And Danny is finding it harder than ever.
