Nepříjemně upřímná kniha o vztazích „Tuto cestu jsem nepodnikl jako novinář. Je to bolestně upřímný popis životní krize, do níž jsem zabředl v důsledku svého chování. Musím se podělit o spoustu věcí, na které nejsem ani trochu hrdý, a o pár věcí, jichž bych měl litovat mnohem více, než jich ve skutečnosti lituji. Protože v tomto příběhu nejsem bohužel hrdina, ale padouch.“ Tak začíná dlouho očekávané pokračování knihy Hra Neila Strausse, zábavného a poučného díla imerzivní žurnalistiky, které opět nastartovalo mezinárodní „sváděcí komunitu“ a ze Strausse udělalo známou osobu – uctívanou či nechvalně proslulou – mezi muži i ženami. V knize Pravda se Strauss pouští do zatím nejobtížnějšího tématu: partnerských vztahů. A během této divoké a nadmíru zábavné cesty se snaží najít odpovědi na otázky, které si muži i ženy pokládají každý den: Je přirozené být celý život věrný jednomu člověku? Mohou alternativy k monogamii přinést lepší vztahy a větší štěstí? Co nás přitahuje na partnerech, které si vybíráme? Dokážeme zamezit uvadání vášně a romantiky s postupujícím časem? Hledání odpovědí autora zavede do odvykací léčebny pro sexuálně závislé, nejmodernějších vědeckých laboratoří, současných harémů, na sexuální orgie a – což je nejděsivější – k vlastní matce. Jeho zjištění změní vše, co do té doby věděl o lásce, sexu, vztazích i o sobě samém. Pravda je pronikavě upřímná a neodolatelně čtivá kniha, která může mít stejný vliv i na vás. Pokud vás Hra naučila, jak se seznámit s příslušníky opačného pohlaví, Pravda vás naučí, jak si je udržet.

THE 30-DAY PROGRAM GAME FANS HAVE BEEN BEGGING FOR: Until now, the tips and techniques Neil Strauss (as his alter ego, Style) used to become the world''s greatest pickup artist have been available only to a select group who paid thousands of dollars to attend in-person seminars with Style.

ALL-NEW CONTENT FOR GAME DEVOTEES: Besides the how-to manual, The Rules of the Game two-book package also includes a whole new volume of Game-style stories.

Een blauwdruk voor succes, die je met een glimlach op je gezicht zult lezen. Vijf sterren (van de vier) – Kevin Hart, een enigszins grappige comedian LEVENSLESSEN VAN DE GRAPPIGSTE MAN OP AARDE Dit zijn de memoires van Kevin Hart. Nu is hij een bekroonde acteur en stand-upcomedian, maar eigenlijk had hij alles tegen: verwekt als ongelukje, geboren in North Philadelphia en de zoon van een aan drugs verslaafde vader en een moeder met losse handjes. Ondanks, of misschien wel juist dankzij dat alles is deze ‘King of Comedy’ de best verdienende komiek ter wereld geworden. In zijn boek neemt Kevin de lezer mee op een reis door zijn leven. Hoe het was en wat het nu is. Hij laat zien hoe hij iedere uitdaging heeft overwonnen om de man te worden die hij nu is. Een inspirerend, boeiend en geestig verhaal. Geschreven met Neil Strauss: redacteur van Rolling Stone, columnist van de New York Times, (mede)schrijver van acht New York Times bestselling books en bekroond met vele prijzen. Met een voorwoord van Jandino Asporaat

From the author of the blockbuster bestseller The Game: A shockingly personal, surprisingly relatable, brutally honest memoir, in which the celebrated dating expert confronts the greatest challenge he has ever faced: monogamy and fidelity Most of us are told, from the moment we are old enough to understand a story, that there is a golden path waiting to take us safely through the jungle of life: get a good job, fall in love, get married, have children, and live happily ever after. It sounds simple enough. Yet as a species, we seem to have an incredibly difficult time making it happen. So, one day, I looked around and saw my friends frustrated and neglected in their marriages-some being unfaithful, others white-knuckling it, many surrendering to their fate, and a few living in denial. And I saw myself still unmarried, childless, and, in the biggest disappointment of all to myself, cheating. And I wondered if it was possible to change the odds-and the rules-for myself . . . The story that follows, however, is not a journey that was undertaken by choice or for the purposes of a book. It is a painfully honest account of a life crisis that was forced on me by my own behavior and its consequences. And as such, it requires sharing a lot of things I''m not proud of-and a few things I feel like I should regret a whole lot more than I actually do. Because, unfortunately, I am not the hero in this tale. I am the villain. Neil Strauss became famous to millions around the world as the author of The Game, a funny and slyly instructive account of how he transformed himself from a scrawny, insecure nerd into the ultra-confident, ultra-successful "pickup artist" known as Style. The book jump-started the international "seduction community," and made Strauss a household name-revered or notorious-among single men and women alike. But the experience of writing The Game also transformed Strauss into a man who could have what every man wants: the ability to date-and/or have casual sex with-almost every woman he met. The results were heady, to be sure. But they also conditioned him to view the world as a kind of constant parade of women, sex, and opportunity-with intimacy and long-term commitment taking a back seat. That is, until he met the woman who forced him to choose between herself and the parade. The choice was not only difficult, it was wrenching. It forced him deep into his past, to confront not only the moral dimensions of his pickup lifestyle, but also a wrenching mystery in his childhood that shaped the man that he became. It sent him into extremes of behavior that exposed just how conflicted his life had become. And it made him question everything he knew about himself, and about the way men and women live with and without each other. He would never be the same again. Searingly honest, compulsively readable, this new book may have the same effect on you.
