Book description
Here, with his remorseless eye for the truth, the bestselling author
of Liar's Poker turns his sights on his own domestic world. The
result is a wickedly enjoyable cautionary tale.
Lewis reveals his own unique take on fatherhood, dealing with the
big issues and challenges of new-found paternity: from discovering
your three-year-old loves to swear to the ethics of taking your
offspring gambling at the races, from the carnage of clothing and
feeding to the inevitable tantrums - of both parent and child - and
the gradual realization that, despite everything, he's becoming hooked.
Home Game is probably the most brazenly honest and
entertaining book about parenting ever written.
