Produktbeschreibung
A story for every misfit who ever thought they were the only ones without all the answers. Robert O'Brien loves cars. Being behind the wheel was a refuge from bullying, insecurity, anxiety and confusion. His father's race car, a BMW E30 M3 Sport Evolution nicknamed the Beast, became his alter ego -- powerful, admired, confident -- and Robert began a quest to become a worthy owner, a "real man." Escaping Ireland to pursue an acting career in Vancouver, he learned there was one thing he couldn't run from: himself. Robert's struggle with self-worth would lead him to an airplane hangar outside Dublin, where the Beast almost killed him but also saved his life. Told with honesty and self-deprecating humour, this is the resonating story of men's mental and emotional health challenges, and discovering that you don't always need to be "fixed."

Autorenporträt
Robert James O'Brien grew up in Ireland as a closeted homosexual with a stutter. Looking to reinvent himself, he moved to Vancouver in 2010. A teacher and an actor, he is a geek who loves stargates and every box Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo put on the shelves. Robert's first book, The Mini: A strategic relaunch of a dormant brand, was published in 2016 by Lambert Academic Publishing. He now lives outside of Dublin in Ireland.
