In 70 short chapters, the author (a/k/a The Smart Old Guy) teaches young men the lost art of being a superior person in trashy times.
Good advice for young men (as well as their parents and the women who want to understand them) presented without preaching, but rather with a lot of wit and style.
This one-of-a-kind book dares tell why it good to be a snob, how to deal with irresistibly reckless women, what weird books to read and bizarre films to see, and what four words will magically open any door----and must never be said! It tells myths and stories you need to know: such as what to say when you meet a goddess and wise words from an ancient Greek on how to live by being ready to die. It has a lot to say about living in reality and not the fantasy world of our media culture. And, as they say, much, much more.
