Synopsis:

"Hilarious, harrowing, and ultimately inspiring.... Truly, there is something arresting and wonderful on every page."
-- Michael Pollan

"With sentences that sometimes astonish" (Matthew Crawford, author of Shop Class as Soulcraft), celebrated cultural critic Mark Edmundson has written a hip and hilarious coming-of-age memoir about one man's miscues and false starts as he enters the world after college. Through exhilarating adventures, he attempts to answer the timeless question of who he is, while contemplating what role music, love, work, drugs, money, and books will play in his life.
