Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
As any loving parent knows, there are few things more rewarding in life than when at the end of a fun-filled day, a child goes quickly and quietly to sleep.
And as any loving parent knows, this doesn't always happen.
In a hilarious subversion of a children's book, GO THE F*** TO SLEEP recounts the emotional journey of a parent passing from hope, to reasoning, pleading, frustration on to remorse, guilt and, finally exhaustion as they try to get the child to fall asleep before they do.
Definitely not a book to read to your child, it will resonate with anyone who has ever spent twenty minutes, forty minutes, four hours reading 'just one more bedtime story'.
Adam Mansbach is a novelist who has written for. among others, The New York Times Book Review, The Believer and is currently collaborating on a novel with the director Robert Rodriguez.
Ricardo Cortes' illustrations have appeared in The New York Times, Vanity Fair and The Village Voice amongst others.

Vendeur : Remarks Used Books, Pittsfield, MA, Etats-Unis
Audio Book (CD). Etat : As New. Pristine copy, unplayed CD [7 minutes], in AS NEW condition. "GO THE F**K TO SLEEP is a bedtime book for parents who live in the real world, where a few snoozing kitties and cutesy rhymes don't always send a toddler sailing blissfully off to dreamland. Profane, affectionate, and radically honest, it captures the familiar--and unspoken--tribulations of putting your little angel down for the night. Beautiful, subversive, and pants-wittingly funny, GO THE F**K TO SLEEP is an audio book for parents new, old, and expectant. You probably should not play this for your children." CONTAINS ADULT LANGUAGE, so Samuel L. Jackson is perfect for this. "A children's book for grown-ups! I really did laugh out loud--hilarious!"--David Byrne. "Finally, someone tells it like it really is. This is no-guilt funny and a godsend!"--Cristina Garcia. N° de réf. du vendeur RUB1617
