iUniverse Announces the Release of Marv Rubinstein's The Womanizer
Author Rubinstein delivers a humorous look at life, love and endless pursuit of the opposite sex.
New York, NY, November 30, 2007 --(PR.com)-- “Womanizer is one of the best books I've read in years. Rubinstein has a superb talent of intimate description, with every chapter rising in expectation. Just couldn’t put the book down til early hours of the AM.” —Jim the Book Maven, Amazon.com
In Womanizer: “Knowing” Wonderful Women, author Marv Rubinstein delivers huge doses of humor, adventure and testosterone with the introduction of Randy Rosen, a philandering young man and self-proclaimed “womanizer.” After a painful experience growing up as a slightly nerdy and socially uncomfortable Jewish boy in Upstate New York, Rosen survives his first love, Annie, while still in high school. Breaking the social mores of the 1950’s Rosen discovers a lifelong fascination with the wonders of the opposite sex. Thus begins Rosen’s worldwide, notorious jaunt through the bedrooms of countless women over the next 60 years.
“Since the term "womanizer" carries with it certain sneering undertones, we could of course eliminate it. I can recommend a good unisex substitute, usable for both men and women who enjoy playing the field. Refer to us as “free spirits.” But why is an alternative necessary? Womanizing is a perfectly acceptable avocation, honored by tradition and boasting an ancient history. It is a fun game thoroughly enjoyed by both players and, in the vast majority of cases, if not taken too seriously, relatively harmless.”
After completing college, Rosen describes in amusing anecdotes a string of one-night stands and more lengthy relationships that range from hilarious orgasmic moans about leaving heaven to shrill temper tantrums following one particularly athletic stint in the bedroom. Moving between his remembrances of beautiful Thai massage therapists who deliver the promised happy endings, to his valiant effort to sustain a dying marriage, Rosen is always self-scrutinizing in his quest for the ultimate sexual experience. As he finally reaches old age, Rosen is left to memories of conquests past as his advances no longer works well with an ever youthful female set.
Even with a certain required literary voice filled with bawdiness, Womanizer dives deeply into an infectious yet intellectual analysis of the relationships between men and women. Not content with simply exploring the sexual side of Rosen’s relationships, author Rubinstein provides a dual gender perspective with a witty yet thoughtful look at how friendship, marriage, and of course sex, is experienced by men and women in the modern world.
