註釋
A journalist’s provocative and spellbinding account of her eighteen months spent disguised as a man.
Norah Vincent became an instant media sensation with the publication of
Self-Made Man
, her take on just how hard it is to be a man, even in a man’s world. Following in the tradition of John Howard Griffin (
Black Like Me
), Vincent spent a year and a half disguised as her male alter ego, Ned, exploring what men are like when women aren’t around. As Ned, she joined a bowling team, took a high-octane sales job, went on dates with women (and men), visited strip clubs, and even managed to infiltrate a monastery and a men’s therapy group. At once thought-provoking and pure fun to read,
Self-Made Man
is a sympathetic and thrilling tour de force of immersion journalism.
