The Men's Club.
I’m currently reading The Men's Club by the late American writer Mr. Leonard Michaels. He only wrote two novels, one of which being The Men's Club, which came out in 1981. It’s a story about a group of strangers who meet up and form a club, where they discuss their problems, and their past life experiences. It’s hilarious. The type size is big and the leading is large so its 192 pages can be read quickly.
Seven men, friends and strangers, gather in a house in Berkeley. They intend to start a men’s club, the purpose of which isn’t immediately clear to any of them; but very quickly they discover a powerful and passionate desire to talk. First published in 1981,The Men’s Club is a scathing, pitying, absurdly dark and funny novel about manhood in the age of therapy. “The climax is fitting, horrific, and wonderfully droll” (The New York Times Book Review).
