[Signed] O’Brien, Glenn. How to Be a Man, A Guide to Style and Behavior for the Modern Gentlemen. First Edition. 2011. Hardcover in green cloth embossed covers (no dust jacket as issued) in very good condition. Book is inscribed, “To Alex, who knows all this stuff! Glenn O’Brien.” Illustrated by Jean-Philippe Delhomme.
This elegant guide on men’s etiquette and fashion is by the former editor of Interview magazine (in the Andy Warhol years) who is now GQ’s “Style Guy.” O’Brien acknowledges that the “barbarians are already inside the gates” but hopes this book might just push them towards the exit. It is a pleasing mix of witty aphorism with practical advice, and it deftly manages to seem au courant while at the same time hewing to tradition. Includes chapters on Manhood, Style, Behavior, Culture & Society, and Wisdom.
