Man on a Journey

Ten psychotherapeutic tales of men with cancer in their lives finding
their way through the crisis. Three characters are introduced to us:
a young, aspirational real estate salesperson, a rusted drill bit, and
‘the man whose wife is unwell’. They are fi rst put to the test by the
crisis, but the struggle is far from ended.
The men dispel the worst stereotypes about how poorly men handle
personal problems, each in their own unique way. Numerous subjects
are covered, including women, fi shing, dream interpretation, anxiety,
hope, values, and ethics. A background music with continuous
meditations on male identity plays throughout.
The tone is good-natured, humorous and a little self-deprecating.
With that in mind, the book can be experienced as an unpretentious
tribute to the masculine complexity, to the colors and nuances that
appear when the lacquer is scratched.
