How to Be a Husband Tim Dowling

Marc Notes: A riotously funny book about how to be a good husband (not like he would know) by Tim Dowling, star columnist for The Guardian. Think Nick Hornby meets Dave Barry--with a hint of Modern Family--; Provided by publisher. Publisher Marketing: This is not a self-help book. Tim Dowling doesn't have any solid advice for you on how to be a man -- he tried hard to become one for a while, but in the end he just got older. This is simply the story of how, in the course of ten bewilderingly short years, Dowling went from a bachelor's life in New York City to becoming an ex-pat in London, solidly married and the father of three young boys. It's also an examination of what it means to be a husband in the twenty-first century -- and what is and isn't required to hold that office these days.
