Andrew Bertaina | 1 comments Hello,
My name is Andrew Bertaina, and I am the author of a new essay collection that isn't currently in the database.

The title is: The Body Is A Temporary Gathering Place.
Pub Date: May 28, 2024
Print Length: 184 pages
Dimensions: 5.5 x 8.5 inches
ISBN: 978-1-957392-30-1
Paperback
Description: Andrew Bertaina is going through a mid-life crisis: failed marriage, child-rearing, self-doubt, ennui, the works. Naturally, Bertaina does what any of us would do; he draws inspiration from the poster boy of mid-life crisis chroniclers, the 16th-century essayist Michele de Montaigne, channeling misgivings into meditations, lostness into longing. The essays in The Body Is A Temporary Gathering Place deal with a variety of timeless and universal topics: e.g., how to woo a French woman on a train, male caregiving, how to cannibalize your spouse, and the riddle of time. The essays promise no answers. They do, however, strive to capture the beauty that lingers in a life passing all too quickly.
