Man Made - A Stupid Quest for Masculinity

Recounts how fatherhood inspired the author to attempt haphazard activities designed to further his maturity, from a shift with Los Angeles firefighters and three days of basic training with the Marine Corps to a fight with UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture.

Commentaire

"This is much more than a funny book, though it is that too. Beneath the humor is a wonderfully poignant exploration of the role of manliness for the 21st century urban guy. It's also a Father's Day love letter disguised as a set of adventure tales. Joel looks lovingly at both his crusty old dad and trusting infant son to reflect deeply on the lessons that we pass along from generation to generation. It made me laugh, and think, a lot."
--Walter Isaacson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Steve Jobs
