Paul Rogers is not a good man, but he's not a bad man either. He's a man who, due to a high-earning wife and company lay-offs, finds himself at home looking after his baby son. His days as a rare and angry male carer take him through swimming pools full of naked mothers to lesbian support groups, telling lies to ex-colleagues about Filipino nannies and leaving obscene comments on parenting blogs. Throughout it all, Paul's life lurches like a badly-maintained stroller towards a devastating and liberating conclusion: his baby's first day in daycare. MEMOIRS OF A MAN was written by a group of stay-at-home Dads who wanted to tell the comical truth of their existence. The names have been changed to protect the innocent, but to get revenge on the guilty everything else has been left untouched. A cross between American Psycho and The Nanny Diaries, this is a novel for consenting adults about childcare. Based on a very true story, it should be read by every father, every potential father, and any woman who wants to know what really goes on when baby is left with Daddy.
