Si encara no tens clar si ets pijo o no, aquest és el teu llibre; si ho tens clar, també.

Tenim tan poca idea dels pijos, del seu món i del seu modus vivendi que el Marc Giró s'ha vist en l'obligació d'escriure aquest nou llibre, desobeint el principi més bàsic de la vida regalada, que diu que el més important a la vida de tot pijo és no pencar mai, sota cap concepte, que això és cosa de les classes proletàries de la Lower-Diagonal.

E quando Beppe Tosco, padre di due figli oggi grandi, ha avuto tra le braccia il suo primo frugoletto si è reso conto che fare il papà non fa solo diventare adulti, ma anche tornare bambini. E con questo manuale assai scorretto per allevare i figli a terra ci riporta direttamente nel nostro passato.

Questo libro è per tutti coloro che credono che l'amore sia meno psicologia e più allegria. In un'epoca iper-romantica quale quella attuale, Beppe Tosco ha scritto un pamphlet umoristico capace di ridimensionare i miti dell'amore: il principe azzurro, l'altra metà del cielo, l'innamoramento, il serio progetto di vita a due, l'amore come scelta e compagnia sognante.
