That is Absolutely Ridiculous!: One Man Against the 21st Century (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180715296)

For a Kindle description, you want to hook the reader immediately with that "relatable rage" and the classic British comedy setup. This will help sell the book to anyone who has ever felt personally victimized by a self-checkout machine.

Here is a ready-to-use description for your Kindle listing:

"That is absolutely ridiculous!"

At 66 years old, Arthur isn't asking for much. He just wants to boil a kettle without needing a Wi-Fi connection, open a packet of biscuits without using a chainsaw, and perhaps-just once-get through the day without a machine telling him he's doing something wrong.

Is that too much to ask? Apparently, yes.

In a world that has traded common sense for "smart" technology, Arthur is a man on a mission to point out the glaring absurdity of modern life. Whether he's battling a digital menu in a rain-soaked high street or having a shouting match with a robot on the telephone, Arthur is saying what everyone else is secretly thinking.

Standing by his side (and occasionally hiding in the next aisle) is Brenda, his wife of thirty years. She's seen it all, heard it all, and has only one question left for her husband as he accidentally reboots the entire supermarket's computer system:

"How the hell did you manage that?"

From the mind of Jasper Quillington comes a hilariously dry, observational comedy about the friction of growing older in a world that won't stop updating. Absolutely Ridiculous! is a tribute to the generation that remembers when things just worked-and the long-suffering partners who keep them grounded.

Perfect for fans of classic British sitcoms and anyone who has ever wanted to throw their smartphone into the nearest canal.
