Danny Wallace to publish book on rudeness with Ebury

Danny Wallace is writing a comedic book about rudeness for Ebury Press, publishing on 15th June 2017. 

Can’t Believe You Just Said That! The Truth about Why People Are SO Rude is pitched as "a fresh, insightful and often hilarious look at the peculiarities of human behaviour, and why it is time for an anti-rudeness revolution".

It will tackle the subject by investigating what we really know about rudeness and what we can do about it. For the book, Wallace has conducted interviews with psychologists, psychiatrists, bell boys, cab drivers, bin men, barristers, baristas, politicians, a limo driver called José, and at least one expert in cooked meat production.

Wallace's books include Join Me, his first book published by Ebury in 2004, and Yes Man, his second book, also published by Ebury, in which he decided to say "Yes" to everything. It was adapted for film starring Jim Carrey in the lead role.
