Award-winning memoirist Adam Fletcher went to find out—and immediately regretted it.
Because finding the answer will mean diving headfirst into the bizarre world of men’s circles, cuddle parties, masculinity retreats, erotic temple nights, psychedelic ceremonies, sweat lodges—and even something called a boredgy (don’t ask).
What begins as a curious quest soon spirals into ecstatic highs and disorienting lows. As the rituals get weirder and the emotional masks fall away, Adam must confront not just masculinity, but his own fear, shame, and crippling Britishness.
Along the way, he'll meet every kind of man—bros, betas, bachelors, bosses, bumblers, and bores—all just as lost as he is. Can they redefine masculinity to fit them all? Can they learn to hug without patting each other’s backs?
Man of the Moment is a brutally honest yet unexpectedly heartwarming memoir about why becoming a better man sometimes means crying naked in the woods with twenty strangers.
If you’ve ever loved a man, been confused by one, or been told you’re not enough of one—this is the book for you.
