Thousands of books have examined the effects of parents on their children. In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior now asks: what are the effects of children on their parents? In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior tries to tackle this question, isolating and analyzing the many ways in which children reshape their parents' lives, whether it's their marriages, their jobs, their habits, their hobbies, their friendships, or their internal senses of self. She argues that changes in the last half century have radically altered the roles of today's mothers and fathers, making their mandates at once more complex and far less clear. Recruiting from a wide variety of sources—in history, sociology, economics, psychology, philosophy, and anthropology—she dissects both the timeless strains of parenting and the ones that are brand new, and then brings her research to life in the homes of ordinary parents around the country. The result is an unforgettable series of family portraits, starting with parents of young children and progressing to parents of teens. Through lively and accessible storytelling, Senior follows these mothers and fathers as they wrestle with some of parenthood's deepest vexations—and luxuriate in some of its finest rewards. Meticulously researched yet imbued with emotional intelligence, All Joy and No Fun makes us reconsider some of our culture's most basic beliefs about parenthood, all while illuminating the profound ways children deepen and add purpose to our lives. By focusing on parenthood, rather than parenting, the book is original and essential reading for mothers and fathers of today—and tomorrow.

When Rick Riley, an intelligent, fun-loving and charismatic factory worker in Indiana, loses his job and decides to run for Congress, he encounters some unexpected opposition from the local Democratic party, his father, and his former boss, a multi-millionaire bent on revenge. After his campaign falters, he decides instead to run for President in the Democratic primaries on a lark, using the Internet as his medium. In January, just weeks before the Iowa primary, an extraordinary event occurs that thrusts Riley into the limelight and lands him at the top of the polls. He considers such a prospect a hilarious turn of events, and he places everything in perspective, poking fun at the establishment and riding the wave despite an unorthodox platform. He successfully thwarts the drastic tactics of his enemies, in particular his former boss, Fenton Stecher, and his primary opponent Mac Malone, the Senate Majority Leader from Texas. Along the way, he also falls in love with Joanne Schaffer, a Congresswoman from Arizona and another presidential candidate. Together, they change the whole idea of how politics works and challenge the stranglehold of special interests in Washington. If you ever wished for a presidential candidate who could tell it like it is and win the hearts of everyone, this book is for you.
