Taking his cue from Shakespeare, Bergengren writes seven humorous essays on the stages of a man’s life: meeting a baby on its own terms, being a boy, meeting the beloved, becoming a father, being a landlord, and growing old, with digressions on Boswell and Johnson, old flies and the very old man.
Gentle American humour in the manner of the familiar essay, suited to reading aloud a chapter at a time. Download the free EPUB.
