Here is a book review posted on Book of the Moment this past month
"This novel, while itself unique, reminds me of a variety of other books I've read in the past. How's that for starting off a review with words that don't make sense. "Hard-Boiled Men" has a Sex in the City/Bukowski/more simple version of Henry Miller-esque-ness to it. (Yes, I'm creating my own words now, leave me alone.)
The story is about Ben Wise, a recently singled man in lonely New York City. Ben has never truly gotten over his last girlfriend, and though he does everything he knows he should, moving on just doesn't come easy for him.
If you're easily offended by perverse sexual discussions, I would recommend you not pick up this book. There is an honesty and frankness similar to that written by Henry Miller throughout this novel..the author holds nothing back and leaves little up to the readers imagination when it comes to the characters' sexual encounters.
Aside from being humorous and perverse, the undertones are sad. Ben truly is an unhappy guy..through every one night stand and blind date, the reader knows there is more to Ben Wise, and wants almost as desperately as he does for him to find happiness.
Give it a read..its a good one."
