HTML: Read by the author, an essayist and stand-up comedian, this collection of hilarious essays is about a single guy attempting to live on the right side of hip. If Peter Hyman is a metrosexual, a straight man with gay tastes, then he is one reluctantly, being loath to hitch himself to an au courant cultural trend unless doing so would get him a movie deal or an actual girlfriend. Peter Hyman's musings, more pop cultural than philosophical, range from the heartfelt to the absurd, whether he's describing the scotch-soaked grief of a bad breakup or his unfortunate attempt at a ménage à trois. With sophistication and enviable wit, The Reluctant Metrosexual chronicles the promiscuity and perils of modern manhood. .Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

But the humour soon grew tiresome.
Some of the essays were enjoyable, entertaining, but others were not. Reasonably good insights on the meterosexual trend, but DULL musings on unemployment (and I'm unemployed).
At the beginning, I thought all his self-depreciative jabs at this (audio)book were in jest, but really, they are reflective of what it actually is: the ramblings of a guy in New York City. It may be interesting from an anthropology research point of view in 50 (or more) years, but right now, not so much.
Pick and choose your essays, but don't bother reading this cover to cover. (
