Laid Bare is Jesse Fink’s startlingly honest, deeply personal account of emotional and mental oblivion after divorce, interwoven with his experiences as an accidental ‘player’ in a world where dating is a blood sport and finding a true connection is harder than ever because of the distractions provided by technology.

It doesn’t shy away from self-exposition, discussion of taboo subjects and what men really think about women, marriage and relationships.

But at the heart of this extraordinary book is how Fink, then a single father whose personal and professional life was falling apart, maintained and repaired his relationship with his now-21-year-old daughter, Evie.

Laid Bare is one man’s view of love as he tries to figure out what it all means while searching for ‘The One’.
