Man on a Journey

Ten psychotherapeutic tales of men with cancer in their lives findingtheir way through the crisis. Three characters are introduced to us:a young, aspirational real estate salesperson, a rusted drill bit, and‘the man whose wife is unwell’. They are fi rst put to the test by thecrisis, but the struggle is far from ended.The men dispel the worst stereotypes about how poorly men handlepersonal problems, each in their own unique way. Numerous subjectsare covered, including women, fi shing, dream interpretation, anxiety,hope, values, and ethics. A background music with continuousmeditations on male identity plays throughout.The tone is good-natured, humorous and a little self-deprecating.With that in mind, the book can be experienced as an unpretentioustribute to the masculine complexity, to the colors and nuances thatappear when the lacquer is scratched.
