"A master of self-deprecation in the spirit of Joe Queenan and P. J. O'Rourke, Hyman takes on contemporary culture with a scalpel and a smirk." -Booklist "[A] winsome, amusing, and intelligent debut collection of essays… Hyman portrays with the right mix of self-deprecation and acute observation his adventures in incompetence."-Kirkus Reviews "Peter Hyman is a great social critic, fashion plate, writer, and urban wit. With ten years of therapy he'll make a great husband too." -Susan Shapiro, author ofFive Men Who Broke My Heart "In his humorous essays about modern manhood Peter Hyman is sly and urbane but never cynical--no small achievement in an age of irony. I spent the book alternately psychoanalyzing him and trying to figure out who to set him up with.The Reluctant Metrosexualis a diverting, immensely pleasurable read, for thinking men and the women who love them." -Amy Sohn, author ofRun Catch KissandMy Old Man "Bikini waxes, threesomes, drug-fueled adventures. No, it's not the memoir of a runway model. It'sThe Reluctant Metrosexual, a hilarious collection of essays that examines the foibles of modern manhood with wry sincerity. I just hope the author isn't ruined by his inevitable success." -Toby Young, author ofHow to Lose Friends and Alienate People "The arrival of this new comic voice should prove welcome news for those who still take time out between apricot facial scrubs and closet-reorganization to actually read books, or just like to display them on their coffee tables." -Todd Hanson, Writer,The Onion, "A master of self-deprecation in the spirit of Joe Queenan and P.

Synopsis
Peter Hyman wants the model/Fulbright Scholar girlfriend, the job with generous stock options and the well-appointed 2BR w/vu. Instead he routinely finds himself single and underemployed in his closet-free walk-up. The last woman he liked got back together with her lesbian lover; the one before that threw up on the first date. Welcome to the almost hip life of a reluctant metrosexuala straight man whose tastes are just gay enough. Equal parts cultural anthropologist, amateur sexologist and witty skeptic, Hyman wryly chronicles the promiscuity and perils of modern manhood, whether he's undergoing a painful Brazilian bikini wax, lurching through a disastrous threesome, or poignantly reflecting on the Scotch-soaked grief of a difficult breakup. So sit back in your Eames lounger and revel in the good fortune thatThe Reluctant Metrosexualis not you, it's him., Equal parts urban anthropologist, amateur sexologist, and cranky skeptic, Hyman pens this hilarious collection of essays on the promiscuity and perils of single life in Manhattan with wry sophistication and enviable wit.
