relationships

This book was much better than I expected. Written in the author’s “real voice.”
There was no “hidding” in the book, Scott Galloway described events from his life and actions “as-is” without trying to make him look better. That is the honesty I like a lot. There were several moments when I was touched and tears got me.
Real, simple life advice from the American entepreneur/professor in his 50s. Focus on relationships, people, mates, friends, children.

Novel about modern relationships, with all the real challenges and every day issues.
I loved the style of the book. It had this one unqiue trick. After some situation there would be explanation from the author - basically the lesson learned from that particular situation. I loved it, because a lot of fiction works sometimes difficult for me to absorb and extract the lessons.
However, beside this clever idea of author’s remarks I don’t think novel worked for me. I wasn’t able to relate to the main male character.

Little Prince: “In those days, I didn’t understand anything. I should have judged her according to her actions, not her words. She perfumed my planet and lit up my life. I should never have run away! I ought to have realized the tenderness underlying her silly pretensions. Flowers are so contradictory! But I was too young to know how to love her.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
