Synopsis

The side-splittingly hilarious new book from bestselling author, rugby icon, and stag do in human form, James Haskell. It’s 2021 and James is at a crossroads. His glittering international rugby career that took him from England to New Zealand and France – including 77 caps for England – is over. What will he do now? What is his purpose in life? In , James sets out on a voyage of self-discovery speaking to ex-colleagues, friends and family, reflecting on his career and diving into some of his most memorable personal anecdotes to date. But what started out as a search for understanding and meaning soon turns into a – let’s face it, sometimes warranted – chastisement opportunity with James directly in the firing line. Turns out he has a lot of work to do… As funny as it is outrageous, this brilliant book acts as a lesson on how (not) to retire gracefully and move forward. And – you won’t want to miss it.

A very entertaining and truthful book! I knew about his Rugby career and had always admired his "give all" attitude on the pitch; however I learned a great deal more about what makes James' tick outside rugby. He is an intelligent, entrepreneurial, social media and speaker personality who often gets i......more

Goodreads review by Oliver on June 10, 2022

Another excellent read from Haskell. Once again opening up about the other side of being a professional athlete and influencer/role model. His self deprecating humour and comedic timing are on point. Looking forward to his future projects.......more
