From a Washington Post critic and self-described meathead, an exploration of male body image, from the history of the gym to the politics of superheroes to the world of manfluencers.
What The Reviewers Say
Caleb Crain,
The Washington Post
Brodeur writes witty, allusive prose about an enthusiasm not today considered highbrow.
Kirkus
Brodeur is consistently funny, but he is also a cleareyed student of the culture with a trove of trivia to fall back on.
Publishers Weekly
A winsome and insightful blend of cultural history and memoir.
