![]() Why would a comedian write a book about dating and romance? Once, Ansari went out on a date with a woman and everything seemed to go fine. ![]() Maybe more should consider doing the same. This route may be a natural extension for them. Comedians are often considered to be thinkers and cultural critics. Come to think of it, maybe it’s not that far-fetched for a comedian to write a research-backed book. Then again, I also thought, good for him for doing something atypical for a comedian he seemed genuinely interested in the subject. It wasn’t even supposed to be a funny anecdotal book about dating, but one with actual research. When I initially heard about Ansari’s book, it seemed a little strange to me that a comedian would write a book about dating. Keep in mind that all of this was before Ansari was hit by the #MeToo movement. I think I first heard about his book on an NPR show. ![]() I don’t follow Aziz Ansari, but I knew who he was, I probably had heard a joke or two from him before and I had heard that he wrote a book on dating. I browsed through and came across a picture of comedian Aziz Ansari posing under the words Modern Romance. I think at the time that I chose this book I was simply looking for another audiobook. ![]()
