About this listen

This book is about fresh starts, about love, about friendship. It is also about the earth-shattering experience of becoming a father, the mundane struggles of family life, ridiculously unsuccessful holidays, the emotional strains of children's birthday parties and pushing a pram around Stockholm when all you really want to do is write.

This is a book about one man's life but, somehow, about everyone else's, too.

Critic Reviews

"A stunningly eloquent set of reflections on masculinity, domesticity and the artist's itch to escape." ( Independent )
"This is a reading experience like no other. Fearless in its truth-telling and as real as life, it is an epic study of what it feels like to be alive." ( Metro)

Many layered experience

The narration makes for an enhanced experience. This is my second listening. I have it in the background and seem to absorb it through osmosis. Like secondhand mindfulness… it’s very relaxing and curiously reassuring. Like a warming balm for the soul.
