New York Times bestselling author, filmmaker, and actor Andrew McCarthy provides a moving and provocative exploration of male friendship and loneliness as he crisscrosses the country to reconnect with his friends.

At one point McCarthy’s friends had been instrumental in broadening his horizons, bolstering his courage, providing safe harbor. Now, he finds himself questioning what had happened to those friendships, whether he needed them, what he valued, and what he had to offer. Who Needs Friends charts McCarthy’s journey over nearly ten thousand miles behind the wheel with one driving purpose: to reconnect. Along the way he talks to countless men about their male friendships and what began as a simple desire to catch up with a few friends turned into a deep exploration of the challenges and rewards that men experience in forming bonds with each other.

In McCarthy’s own words, “It turns out that guys have a difficult time with friendship.” But that’s not the way it needs to be.
