Title : In Praise of the Bald - Philippe Eliakim - book
Summary :
The true and hilarious story of a premature bald man.
What can one lose at the end of adolescence? One's time, one's illusions, one's virginity, one's friends, one's grandmother, one's love, one's glasses, one's wallet, all at once if one wishes. But one's hair! I won't let anyone say that twenty is the best age, having seen it frolicking one winter evening on a garnet carpet on Rue Marx-Dormoy...
At twenty, Philippe Eliakim saw the long blond curls he was so proud of fall out one by one... From this traumatic experience and the years of plucking that followed, he now draws a personal, original and offbeat account. With finesse and humor, he hides nothing from us about his numerous and unsuccessful attempts at care and camouflage, his medical readings, his problems of seduction, his obsessive research on bald people through the ages, their manic classification (from semi-shorn to completely bald)... A book to give to all men without exception to make them laugh about one of their biggest sources of anxiety.
