AlbakiReads Editorial

A comic take on the realities of parenthood

Paul Reiser’s Babyhood approaches parenting through humor, placing the everyday experience of raising children within the broader terrain of marriage and family life. The book is positioned as a comic, adult-oriented reflection on parenthood rather than a practical childcare manual, with its subject extending from the prospect of having children to the memories of life with young kids. Its connection to Reiser’s work in comedy and television gives the book a clear place in the comic-memoir and family-humor tradition.

Book overview

The classic New York Times bestseller from actor/comedian Paul Reiser, a book that the San Francisco Chronicle calls "an out-loud laugh on every page," is now available in trade paperback for the very first time. For fans of Reiser's long-running sitcom Mad About You, with Helen Hunt and Hank Azaria, for readers of comic memoirs like Tina Fey's Bossypants, and "for the couple considering parenthood as well as for parents who are decades past their days of diaper changing...this book hits home and hits the funnybone" (Chicago Tribune).
