Now, for the first time, 50 of the funniest Diagram winners and runners-up are reproduced in full glorious colour in How To Avoid Huge Ships , an irresistible anthology of the oddest of the odd. Here are wildly implausible titles such as Bombproof Your Horse , People Who Don t Know They re Dead and The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories , not forgetting the classic Greek Rural Postmen and Their Cancellation Numbers , voted by the public the oddest title of the past 30 years in the hotly contested Diagram of Diagrams. Mind-boggling, charming and utterly unique, How To Avoid Huge Ships is the perfect gift for book-lovers and anyone with a quirky sense of humour.
