Summary: and maybe the next story will give me an inkling...
Review: The writers seemed to be reaching hard to delve some deep female part inside when they would rather be marlin-fishing or something. I found the discussions of intimacy the most readable, possibly because having sex is apparently the only thing men have in common with women. In trying so excruciatingly hard to show feelings, many of the writers turned to, you guessed it, life and death situations such as a spouse's cancer, war in Africa, parental loss. The kinds of things it takes to get guys to emote, I suppose. Could you perhaps let us know how you felt to see your child be born? Ease a child's anxiety over some imagined terror? Let us know why you hate, really hate, the guy in the car in front of you? So you would throw yourself down the stairs if it would make the Vikings win. Uhuh. And sex is the closest thing to God. Gotcha. Now we know you write with it, in addition to thinking with it.

Summary: Harvest came early this year!
Review: WOW! I never thought much about my masculinity before I read this book. This is about recognizing that macho is not a musto. There is a lot of room to accept the multiplicity that can be masculinity. The laying-bare of our cultural male sensibilty has always been something lingering at the limit of my consciousness. The bravery of these male voices will serve to evolve our faltering gender before it's too late.
