Home Game : An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood

When Michael Lewis became a father, he decided to keep a written record of what actually happened immediately after the birth of each of his three children.

This book is that record. But it is also something else: maybe the funniest, most unsparing account of ordinary daily household life ever recorded, from the point of view of the man inside.

The remarkable thing about this story isn t that Lewis is so unusual.

It s that he is so typical. The only wonder is that his wife has allowed him to publish it."
