Michael Chabon, author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and
Clay, Manhood for Amateurs and Moonglow, returns with a collection
of heartfelt, humorous and insightful essays on the meaning of
fatherhood. You are born into a family and those are your people,
and they know you and they love you and if you are lucky they even,
on occasion, manage to understand you. And that ought to be enough.
But it is never enough What are you allowed to talk about with your
children? When to step in with advice, when to let them make their
own mistakes? It's more complicated than you think. Somehow you
muddle through. In this heartfelt, humorous and wise book, Pulitzer
Prize-winning author Michael Chabon attempts to weigh in on
difficult conversations with his children, on everything from
texting girls to death. But it is when he hangs back that he
catches them transforming into their own people. What emerges is a
father's deep respect for his children's passions and for their
bravery in the face of conformity. Whether you know the joy and
struggles of being a father, or were shaped by one, you will find a
home in these stunning essays.
