All That Man Is by Szalay, David
A Novel
A linked sequence of short narratives follows men at successive stages of life, each story a compact, sharply observed episode—on trips, in bedrooms, at offices and in transit—that together map the shifting shapes of modern masculinity. With spare, often darkly comic prose, the collection probes loneliness, desire, small cruelties and the quiet failures and reassessments that punctuate adulthood, revealing how fleeting encounters and interior compromises accumulate into a portrait of aging, vulnerability and disconnection.
