Since You Asked: Readers' Favorite Advice Columns on Love, Drugs, Sex, Dreams, Creativity, Adultery, Addiction, Abuse, Narcissism, Hyperacusis, Grief, ... Hell Does My Boyfriend Really Live, anyway?

Witty and Irreverent Wisdom for Lovers, Cheaters, Drinkers and Saints

In Since You Asked Cary Tennis, with the help of Salon.com's 4.4 million monthly readers, has collected some of the most unforgettable letters and best answers from his Salon.com advice column.

Those who open Since You Asked at any page will be instantly caught up in an idiosyncratic modern problem. "Where does my boyfriend really live?" Or, "We're married, but do we have to live together?" And the correspondent who confessed, "I forgot to tell my wife I have a twelve-year-old daughter."

Cary responds to these problems at a deep level: the level of personal myth. In this way Since You Asked is a uniquely intimate book that explores the big questions of life thoughtfully and maybe provides a little peace. This is why one of his readers called him, "The Walt Whitman of advice columnists."
