Kay Plunkett-Hogge and Debora Robertson have honed their combined social wisdom into a warm and witty guide to navigating modern life with manners. They have done the fieldwork, made the mistakes and committed enough embarrassing faux pas for two lifetimes in the hope that you don't have to!
Their funny, frank handbook is the cheat sheet to every social situation -whether at home or work; public spaces and shops; births; weddings; holidays; eating out; how to party; digital decorum; office etiquette and even how to manage deaths and grief - this is your right-hand manual to styling out life with a modicum of grace.
Good manners are not about knowing what to wear for drinks at six, being pretentious or catching people out with some mysterious salad-fork-related regulation. In essence, modern manners are simply organised kindness, and Kay and Debora will show you how being in possession of them will enhance the quality of your everyday life and that of the people around you.
