Fatherhood for dummies—a perfectly frank and mercilessly
funny account. 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 is also something
else: maybe 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. The
only wonder is that his wife has allowed him to publish it.
