Über diesen Titel

Parks and Recreation actor Nick Offerman shares his humorous fulminations on life, manliness, meat, and much more in his first book.

Growing a perfect moustache, grilling red meat, wooing a woman - who better to deliver this tutelage than the always charming, always manly Nick Offerman, best known as Parks and Recreation's Ron Swanson? Combining his trademark comic voice and very real expertise in woodworking - he runs his own woodshop - Paddle Your Own Canoe features tales from Offerman's childhood in small-town Minooka, Illinois - "I grew up literally in the middle of a cornfield" - to his theater days in Chicago, beginnings as a carpenter/actor and the hilarious and magnificent seduction of his now-wife Megan Mullally. It also offers hard-bitten battle strategies in the arenas of manliness, love, style, religion, woodworking, and outdoor recreation, among many other savory entrees.

A mix of amusing anecdotes, opinionated lessons and rants, sprinkled with offbeat gaiety, Paddle Your Own Canoe will not only tickle readers pink but may also rouse them to put down their smart phones, study a few sycamore leaves, and maybe even handcraft (and paddle) their own canoes.

Kritikerstimmen

“[Offerman] not only explores his Paul Bunyan-like image with tongue-in-cheek lessons on manliness, complete with illustrations and advice, but also offers poignant memories of his childhood growing up in Illinois and hilarious anecdotes from his career.” (Entertainment Weekly)

“Offerman touches on everything from his days as a break-dancing, football-playing farm boy in Minooka (about 50 miles southwest of the Loop) to his freewheeling, hedonistic 20s in Chicago to the inevitable Hollywood struggles that followed. But he doesn’t gloss over embarrassing moments, including his two trips to jail during college at the University of Illinois - one for shoplifting Ronnie Milsap cassettes from Kmart as a joke; the other, he says, a convoluted case of mistaken identity. Between anecdotes, he delivers impassioned pleas and rants…” (Chicago magazine)

“Thought-provoking, profane, and frequently hilarious…getting to know Offerman through his stumbling courtship with Megan Mullally and Kabuki theater training is well worth the price of admission.” (Publishers Weekly)

... and it's inspiring to hear him talk about it!
As his own narrator he can portray his book perfectly. I'm sad I finished it.

Offerman has life pegged

I loved Nick Offerman's audiobook. He is so thoughtful and clever and I am truly sad that it is over. I have to say I didn't know much about Nick before starting this book, other than he was a Midwestern boy, was married to Megan Mullaly, and was the hilarious Ron Swanson on Parks and Rec. I really loved his story telling style and honest tellings of his life. i will be listening again.

brilliantly delivered and written. worth every sec

If you want Ron Swanson himself telling you some truths about life you have found your match.
Listen to this book while calmly paddling your canoe on an accumulation of water. Enjoy the shit out of it. Thank me later

Classic Nick Offerman

Nette Anekdoten, manch unterhaltsame Geschichte, einige interessante Einsichten zum Showbusiness, und auch nachdenkenswerte Anmerkungen für ein glückliches Leben.
Der Sprecher/Autor/Schauspieler ist super!
Mehr ist es aber auch nicht.

Ganz nett, aber nicht mehr
