He'd worked in the city. He knew how to deal with the worst excesses of human behaviour. He had cojones. Right? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWrong. He was about to become a father: 'If you remembered what new parenthood was actually like you wouldn't go around lying to people about how wonderful it is, and you certainly wouldn't ever do it twice.' \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere Lewis reveals his own unique take on new-found paternity: from discovering your three-year-old loves swearing to the ethics of taking your offspring gambling at the races, from toilet-training to the inevitable tantrums - of both parent and child - and the gradual realization that, despite everything, he's becoming hooked: 'I know for a fact that my children are insane. Or, at any rate, I know that if an adult behaved as my children do, he would be institutionalized. Is it possible that they are contagious?' \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Lewis is the finest storyteller of our generation' Malcolm Gladwell\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/michael-lewis-books\"\u003eMichael Lewis\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Penguin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780141043197\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lewis, Michael","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £1.01","offer_id":48007931756721,"sku":"SB-0141043199-C3","price":1.01,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0141043199.jpg?v=1791335485","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/home-game-an-accidental-guide-to-fatherhood","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
