Phillip Toledano became a father at the age of forty. He
fell in love with his daughter about a year and a half
later, when he realized she was the most bewitching human
being he'd ever seen. Initially, though, things were
different. The Reluctant Father follows Phillip's
journey at the beginning of fatherhood. The first eighteen
months were a time of torment, dismay, and confusion. The
blinding light of unalloyed love came later. It's a
surprisingly frank, funny, and moving account, and he hopes
his daughter won't hold it against him when she's grown
up. In many ways, The Reluctant Father is a
sequel to the best-selling Days With My Father, which
documented the three years Phillip spent taking care of his
father, who suffered from dementia.
