REVIEW

Guy Jacobs
is this generation's Mickey Spillane, breathing life into the seamy
underbelly of New York City in his gritty novel, "Hard-Boiled Men,"
a New York Book Festival runner-up and honorable mention at the Hollywood
Book Festival. Jacobs follows under-sexed, over-analytical university
professor Dr. Benjamin Wise, fresh off a horrific break-up, on a journey
to reawaken his libido. Set against the backdrop of Asian massage parlors,
University hallways and West Village anarchy, Hard-Boiled Men provides
an honest and hilarious account of single life in New York City. The
book exposes men’s secret thoughts on the nature of love, marriage,
and sexuality.
