5.0 out of 5 stars
Laughed so hard I got a nose-bleed,
By Gerry R (Dallas TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Monster Adventures in American Machismo (Hardcover)
Brian Bouldrey speaks for all us Monsters out there, and hits the nail on the head with his stories of the hidden effeminate side of macho. I've been to many rodeos in my life, and his descriptions of the prissy behavior of otherwise he-man bronc and bull riders is perfect!Monster shows really well how "macho" and "sissy" behavior are just two sides of the same coin. This was a fun book to read, and funny! LOVED the piece on wrestling! And in between the laughs are so many truthful zingers about America's culture of macho. Great book.

Thoroughly Enjoyable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Monster Adventures in American Machismo (Hardcover)
This book is very insightful and thought-provoking, while at the same time managing to be hysterically funny. The author manages to interject plenty of humor into his self-deprecating and intelligent writing style and in doing so manages to give the reader a fresh perspective and stimulate thought about things that you may think you've already made up your mind about. Mr. Bouldrey manages to be funny, intelligent and entertaining without resorting to tired schtick and reader manipulation and that's a very good thing. |
