Overview

Christmas is an ethical and political minefield. Luckily, this survival guide contains valuable advice on how to navigate the hazards of the holiday season. Learn how to... * launch a scathing dinner table takedown on your woefully unwoke relatives * craft your own sustainable decorations that bring festive cheer without compromising the 2050 Paris Agreement * splurge on Black Friday without propping up the neoliberal capitalist agenda * build a body-positive snowperson that isn't a straight white male for once * skilfully avoid eating meat or dairy without it becoming a whole thing you have to justify for an hour. Whether it's a stocking filler for a left-leaning loved one, or a Secret Santa gift for a painfully earnest colleague, A Snowflake's Guide to Christmas is the perfect gift for anyone with a bleeding heart (and a sense of humour) this holiday season.
