Bruce Jay Friedman Libros
Este autor estadounidense fue conocido por su humor negro y burlón y su aguda crítica social, dirigida a las preocupaciones y comportamientos de los judíos estadounidenses. Sus obras exploran frecuentemente temas de alienación y la incapacidad de los personajes para asimilarse a la vida estadounidense, con protagonistas a menudo de ascendencia judía pero que se sienten ajenos tanto a la cultura judía como a la estadounidense. La escritura de Friedman se caracteriza por su enfoque en personajes y situaciones absurdas, reflejando una perspectiva única sobre la condición humana.

And in almost all of them, even the most callow among us take something away. This is a book about that something, whether it be major life lessons, like "If you lie, you will get caught," simple truths like, "Flowers work," or something wholly unique like, "Watch out for the high strung brother in the military."This anthology will be comprised of longer and shorter pieces, drawn from an array of impressive celebrities, writers and public figures. Some pieces may be a paragraph in length while others will be full-blown essays. All of them will be about that salient something men take away from a failed relationship. Yes, men learn.This is not a touchy-feely book. This is not a self-help book. This is a book packed with smart, funny and insightful stories from men you probably thought never got dumped, or if they did, would never admit it.
