Discover the Survival Manual You Didn't Know You Needed
Are you tired of the same old self-help promises? Do you feel bombarded by "think-rich" mantras that ignore everyday struggles? The Losers' Club: A Survival Manual for Failures with Aspirations flips the script on the genre with razor-sharp humor and brutal honesty. Written by Francisco Angulo de Lafuente, this book is your irreverent companion through the absurdities of modern life.
Why You'll Want to Read It:- Relatable Satire: From skyrocketing rent and endless student debt to the gig economy's dead-end hustle, each chapter exposes the raw, unfiltered reality many face but few admit aloud.- Witty, Unapologetic Voice: If you've ever felt like an underdog in a world obsessed with "winners," this book speaks your language. It mocks the clichés of success culture while offering genuine solidarity: "It's okay to be a loser, as long as you accept it."- Practical (and Hilarious) "Advice": With chapter titles like "My Refrigerator Has Gone on Strike" or "Tinder for Losers (Swipe Left on Life)," you'll find survival tips that are both comedic and surprisingly insightful. You'll laugh while nodding: yes, these absurd scenarios are exactly what we live.- Universal Appeal: Whether you're fresh out of college, stuck in a career rut, navigating relationships in the digital age, or simply exhausted by hyperbole-laden pep talks—this book validates your experience and offers a wry perspective on "making it" in today's world.- A Fresh Take on Failure: Instead of sugarcoating, it embraces failure as a shared human condition. It invites readers to find freedom in acceptance, to float instead of endlessly swim against the current, and to discover humor even in hardship.
What Early Readers Are Saying:- "At once hilarious and painfully truthful—like therapy in joke form."- "A breath of fresh air for anyone fed up with toxic positivity."- "I recognized myself (and my utterly dysfunctional circle of friends) on every page."
Who Should Pick This Up:- Fans of satirical memoirs or dark humor (think David Sedaris meets Mark Manson, but with a sharper edge).- Readers craving honesty about money, mental health, work, and relationships in the 21st century.- Anyone seeking permission to stop chasing impossible ideals and start embracing life as it is—messy, uncertain, but sometimes absurdly funny.

Francisco Angulo
Madrid, 1976
Enthusiast of fantasy cinema and literature and a lifelong fan of Isaac Asimov and Stephen King, Angulo starts his literary career by submitting short stories to different contests. At 17 he finishes his first book - a collection of poems - and tries to publish it. Far from feeling intimidated by the discouraging responses from publishers, he decides to push ahead and tries even harder.
In 2006 he published his first novel "The Relic", a science fiction tale that was received with very positive reviews. In 2008 he presented "Ecofa" an essay on biofuels, whereAngulorecounts his experiences in the research project he works on. In 2009 he published "Kira and the Ice Storm".A difficultbut very productive year, in2010 he completed "Eco-fuel-FA",a science book in English. He also worked on several literary projects: "The Best of 2009-2010", "The Legend of Tarazashi 2009-2010", "The Sniffer 2010", "Destination Havana 2010-2011" and "Company No.12".
He currently works as director of research at the Ecofa project. Angulo is the developer of the first 2nd generation biofuel obtained from organic waste fed bacteria. He specialises in environmental issues and science-fiction novels.
His expertise in the scientific field is reflected in the innovations and technological advances he talks about in his books, almost prophesying what lies ahead, as Jules Verne didin his time.
