Description:
Dan Zevin has chronicled the reluctant passage of Generation
X from hip dissonance to cubicle conformity. This collection of essays
track his development from disinterested beer-swilling slob into the
type of person who suddenly cares about his lawn, golf and health clubs.
His earlier works, Entry-Level Life and Nearly-Wed Handbook,
served as primers to former slackers confronting new realities,
and now in The Day I Turned Uncool, he reminds Gen-Xers of
the Next Great Steps: recreational sports — home maintenance —
parenthood.
