A part-memoir, part call-to-arms from the award-winning and hilariously funny Robert Webb.
Robert Webb has been a male for his whole life. As such, he has been a boy in a world of fighting, pointless posturing and the insistence that he stop crying. As an adult man, he has enjoyed better luck, both in his work as the Webb half of Mitchell & Webb in the Sony award-winning That Mitchell & Webb Sound and the Bafta award-winning That Mitchell & Webb Look, and as permanent man-boy Jeremy in the acclaimed Peep Show. He also played Bertie Wooster in the acclaimed West End run of Jeeves and Wooster in Perfect Nonsense. Robert has been a columnist for the Daily Telegraph and the New Statesman, and now lives in London with his wife and daughters, where he continues trying to be funny and to fumble beyond general expectations of manhood.

'Frank and compelling ... Laugh-out-loud funny ... also, in parts,
blink-back-tears sad. Why would I blink back tears rather than give
full rein to the emotion? Well, Webb can explain.'
*Mail on Sunday*
'Written with wit and clarity, How Not To Be a Boy is a funny,
rueful, truthful book.'
*Stephen Fry*
'Quite simply brilliant. I (genuinely) cried. I (genuinely) laughed
out loud. It's profound, touching, personal yet universal ... I
loved it'
*J.K. Rowling*
'Takes us deftly from hilarity to heart-stopping hurt ... A truly
great read, full of heart.'
*Dawn French*
