Let William McInnes reignite your nostalgia for holidays past, and give you a taste of the boundless opportunities that await in holidays to come in this book about our love affair with life away from the everyday.This book will take you back to the holidays you had as a kid and remind you of the ones you've had with your own family or friends or even the ones where you've flown solo.Holidays are the runway to possibilities - a romantic sunset, the spare seat at breakfast being taken by an attractive stranger, a miraculous airline upgrade - or missing bags, unfortunate rashes and wrong turns that lead to places you definitely did not intend to go. Whether you are away from home and somewhere exotic or just in your own backyard on a lilo in an above-ground pool, whatever happens, you know that life is sweet because you're on HOLIDAYS.Whatever kind of holiday you've got planned, make sure you pack this warm and funny celebration of Australia's favourite national pastime.PRAISE for William McInnes's previous books: 'skilfully constructed...insightful, understated and very funny' \u003cb\u003eSydney Morning Herald on \u003ci\u003eThe Laughing Clowns\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e'The Making of Modern Australia is a ripper' \u003cb\u003eThe Canberra Times\u003c\/b\u003e'William McInnes compels with the sheer delightfulness of his memoir, and with his fine ability to spin a damn funny yarn' \u003cb\u003eSunday Telegraph on \u003ci\u003eA Man's Got To Have a Hobby\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e'funny and clever' \u003cb\u003eDaily Telegraph on \u003ci\u003eThat'd Be Right\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e'A big-hearted novel with character' \u003cb\u003eSunday Telegraph on \u003ci\u003eCricket Kings\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47106490859760,"sku":"9780733633133","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780733633133_p0.jpg?v=1763620981","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780733633133","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
