The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life by Erving Goffman

5.0

Erving Goffman wrote a lot about the sociology of self, and he was a master of the topic. This book approaches the question of how we present our selves in social interaction. Is the self you present the self you are? How many selves are you, anyway? Not many of us have just one way of presenting ourselves. Kind of a mental slog to get through this one, but well worth it.
