The reader is invited to join Angus Deayton on a quest for terrestrial happiness which sees him travelling to the four corners of the world and Bolton. Written to accompany a BBC1 series, this book takes a humorous look at the sometimes extreme lengths to which people will go in the name of happiness. Whether it is acquisition of a new name, a new nation, money, religious devotion, sensual hedonism, love or the re-ordering of society, Deayton visits people around the globe from wife-swappers in Cheshire to the free love advocates of the South Sea island paradise, Triouband; from a drug-smoking, Danish pastry-eating, sauna-taking commune just outside Copenhagen, to the students enrolled on #130 an hour classes who wish to steal other women's husbands in New York.
