Synopsis "home game,an accidental guide to fatherhood"

When Michael Lewis became a father, he decided to keep a written record of what actually happened immediately after the birth of each of his three children. This book is that record. But it is also something else: maybe the funniest, most unsparing account of ordinary daily household life ever recorded, from the point of view of the man inside. The remarkable thing about this story isn't that Lewis is so unusual. It's that he is so typical. The only wonder is that his wife has allowed him to publish it.

Michael Lewis (New Orleans, 1960) is a renowned American writer and journalist specialized in economics, finance, and popular culture. Graduated in Art History from Princeton University and with a master's in Economics from the London School of Economics, he worked as a bond trader at Salomon Brothers, an experience he narrated in his first book, Liar’s Poker (1989). Since then, he has published numerous non-fiction works that combine rigorous research with an accessible and engaging narrative

Among his most notable titles are Moneyball: Breaking the Rules (2003), The Blind Side (2006), The Big Short (2010), and Flash Boys: The Wall Street Revolution (2014). Several of these works have been successfully adapted into films, including Moneyball and The Big Short, the latter winning the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. His most recent book, Going Infinite (2023), addresses the rise and fall of Sam Bankman-Fried and the FTX platform. Lewis has been awarded prizes such as the Gerald Loeb Award and was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2023.
