Michael Lewis’s “Home Game” is meant for the man who has everything — including a grudging attitude toward raising his own children. Distinciones
When he became a father, Michael Lewis found himself expected to feel things that he didn't feel, and to do things that he couldn't see the point of doing. At first this made him feel guilty, until he realized that all around him fathers were pretending to do one thing, to feel one way, when in fact they felt and did all sorts of things, then engaged in what amounted to an extended cover-up. Lewis decided to keep a written record of what actually happened immediately after the birth of each of his three children. This book is that record. But it may also be the funniest, most unsparing account of ordinary daily household life ever recorded from the point of view of the man inside. The remarkable thing about this story isn't that Lewis is so unusual--it's that he is so typical.--From publisher description. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

1. Fathers feel like they are not as important in childrearing as the mother.
2. Small children enjoy using foul language, without understanding its social repercussions.
3. Vasectomies don't always "take".
4. Having kids means accepting long periods of sleep deprivation.
Overall, a quick and entertaining read, but I certainly think this was written for dads. I am not a dad. ( )
