'The most important and accessible mental health book in a generation. Truly life-changing.' – Osher Günsberg

Your Head is a Houseboat is a uniquely hilarious guide to what goes on in your brain, from illustration sensation Campbell Walker aka Struthless.

The only truth we really know is that we're going to spend the rest of our lives in our own houseboat (our head) so it makes sense to make that houseboat as good as possible. The houseboat needs cleaning and maintenance, and it shouldn't be weighed down by junk (our own thoughts and other people's opinions). It has an unreliable and overworked Sea Captain, and a zoo of animalistic desires below the deck who are really steering. But it's your houseboat, so it's probably time for you to cast away and set sail (is that even how houseboats work?) on a journey to understanding it.

In Your Head is a Houseboat, Cam demystifies brain functions, mental health, emotions, mindfulness and psychology – but with less complex terminology and more bizarre metaphors. It's a book filled with illustrations, journal exercises and words that will probably hit too close to home. At its core, this is a funny, accessible approach to understanding your head and making it a nicer place to live.

Campbell Walker is an illustrator, animator and content creator better known as Struthless. Cam& has built a combined following of over 750,000 people, and worked with clients like Comedy Central, Spotify, Vice, Pedestrian TV, GQ, The Betoota Advocate, Tinder, Samsung, Gatorade and Universal Music. He has a line of apparel, and a podcast with Triple J’s Bryce Mills. Before drawing, Cam worked as an advertising creative director, a tattooist and (for one very strange week) a golf-cart taxi driver at an Arizonan country music festival.
