The New One: Painfully True Stories from a Reluctant Dad by Mike Birbiglia

5.0

An honest, raw look at the uncomfortable transition from being a husband, to being a dad. Birbiglia's comedic timing from stand-up, transitions well through his writing. J. Hope Stein's poetic contributions to, The New One, offer something rarely seen in a memoir; the other story. This "other story" offers more honesty and insight to Birbiglia's voyage.
