Více o knize

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author presents his first major nonfiction work, an autobiographical narrative that mirrors the inventiveness and beauty of his acclaimed fiction. This collection of insightful and provocative essays marks Michael Chabon’s first sustained personal writing, offering a glimpse into his life through a series of reflections, regrets, and reexaminations sparked by present encounters tied to his past. Chabon explores the meaning of manhood today, drawing on his personal and family history with warmth and lyricism. He shares memories of his childhood, his parents' marriage and divorce, and the painful yet comedic moments of adolescence, all while navigating the vibrant landscape of popular art and literature from his youth. As a devoted son, passionate husband, and father of four, he presents his life as a symphony played by a mad quartet, where he serves as co-conductor. Dazzling, hilarious, and deeply moving, this work is destined to become a classic, inviting readers to reflect on their own experiences and the legacies that shape them.
