Guide to Men

by Helen Rowland

Helen Rowland's "Guide to Men" is a collection of witty observations and reflections on the complexities of relationships between men and women. Through a series of short essays, poems, and one-liners, Rowland presents a humorous and insightful commentary on societal expectations, courtship, marriage, and the dynamics of power within partnerships. The book offers a satirical lens on gender roles and the often-contradictory nature of human interaction. It's a playful exploration of the quirks and foibles of both men and women, while often poking fun at the conventions of the time.
