Normal People Frighten Me Book

Normal People Frighten Me offers a light hearted and rough-edged philosophical way to look at the world and all who live in it. "Normal people have this unique perception of everyone and everything else. They see the world according to their conditioning; Charlie Chaplin once entered a Charlie Chaplin look-a-like competition...and he came third." Written by Glaswegian author, Stephen Hamilton Nicol, the book is as close to a rant as possible about life; by taking a satire swipe approach at the behaviour of: 'Normal People'. The title alone is enough to arouse curiosity for lovers of rant and general humour. 'Normal People Frighten Me' poses many questions about why normal people have this strange obsession with all things celebrity and why they conform too easily to peer pressure. Why the normals of this world follow each other like sheep; having no self-efficient or critical thinking capabilities of their own and why there is a distinct need right now to declare War on Stupidity before it's too late. There are also slight tints of political overtures and a soft grain of one-liners. Satirical philosophies from the witty Glaswegian like, "The beauty about this life is: everyone else thinks everyone else is an idiot." And, "Our life's prospects are not based on any faith or roll of a dice; they are divided by reality," add warmth to a mediocre-infested world but wrapped up in good old fashioned banter...in true Glaswegian style. One thing guaranteed about this book is anyone who has the privilege of reading it will see something of themselves in it; if not, others they know. It's like a mini-biography of us all in some respects. The world is made up of 90% of them and 10% of us. Where do you fit in?Read More
