Title: Men Have Feelings Too
Review: Popular culture would like us to believe that men who feel inclined to leave their families are monsters.This book presents a broader picture. How the motivation of a man is almost entirely the same as a woman that leaves a husband: the search for love, the search for passion, the search for meaning.I really thought I would end up loathing this main character but instead I felt a measure of sympathy and humanity towards him.I will be less judgmental about marriage and divorce after this book.Stylistically this book is beautiful. Not only is short and hard-hitting but its so clean. I think the contradiction between the cleanliness of the writing and the pain that is on display is one of the best things about this novel.Well done Mr Kureishi.
