In the number one New York Times bestseller Couplehood, Paul Reiser wrote about the highs and lows of falling in love and getting marriedâand the heartbreak and hilarity that comes with it. In Babyhood, he turned his sharply observant eye to the experiences of having a brand-new family. And now in Familyhood, Reiser shares his observations on parenting, marriage, and mid-life with the wit, warmth, and humor that heâs so well-known for.From the first experience of sending his two boys off to summer campâthe early feelings of gleeful freedom in an empty house, to realizing how empty the house actually wasâto maneuvering the minefield of bad words learned at school, this hilarious book captures the spirit of familyhood, the logical next frontier for Reiserâs trademark perspective on the universal truths of life, love, and relationships.
