Descrizione
A feel-good book about when everything goes wrong.
Breakfast for Dinner is a memoir-in-essays about family, failure, and the long, stumbling effort of becoming the adult you always needed as a kid.
Across thirteen funny and unflinchingly honest stories, Ryan Staples revisits the strange and humiliating moments that somehow shape a life: the end of childhood friendships, a near-death experience in U.S. Navy boot camp, middle school bullies, sucking at sports, living with a Turkish immigrant he met on the internet, and the deeply uncomfortable realization that his father waited about five years too long to deliver the sex talk.
Told by someone who has absolutely no business giving advice, Breakfast for Dinner captures the awkwardness of growing up, the pain of not being seen, and what it takes to become someone the people you love can rely on.
