Broken Bananah: Life, Love, and Sex...Without a Penis

De: Ross Asdourian

Narrado por: Ross Asdourian

A comedic memoir about sexuality, this is a journey through severe medical trauma for anyone who's been through an accident or is currently experiencing a "break". Broken Bananah is what happens when your privates go public and you've got too much time in your own head. This is about love, life, and sex...without a penis.

Getting in cabs, going to work, taking a shower... These routine activities are a lot harder to do with a catheter in my Little Richard. Why? Well, I tore two muscles in my beloved rooster and severed my urethra having casual sex. This is the funny/not-so-funny story of the accident, the recovery, and all the blood, pain, love, and philosophy in between. A score of people helped me pee, including my mother, as I shuffled around New York City tethered to a urination tube for a month. It's a story about perspective through anecdotes like cross-dressing Halloween costumes, a teenage dowry, and a copious amount of phallic references. I guess it could always be worse. We might as well laugh while we cry, masturbate until it hurts, and realize the truth is ridiculous if we're brave enough to claim it. Hopefully you want more than this short description, but, like my sex life, I've finished before you even started.

What We All Need Right Now

This book was such a breath of fresh air. Not only was this horrible incident portrayed hilariously, but the stories involved in and around it blended in perfectly. Highly recommend for a great laugh, some what not-to-do’s and a reminder that maybe our lives aren’t so bad.

And there ya go!

I enjoyed the story as well as learned how delicate the penis is, my second favoeite organ! Well done!

A Must- Listen

Any additional comments?

The book touches on the uncomfortable truth we call life. The author’s traumatic story exposes the hardships of love, vulnerability, fear, and intimacy of oneself through an honest comedic fashion. If you look beyond the painstaking hilarity that comes with the thought of a guy breaking his dick while having sex, you will see the rawness this book displays. The author exposes the fear of losing an essential part of our lives - sex, love and intimacy; the lesson of how to rise after we have fallen; personal steps both emotionally and physically that we must face in order to heal; and the interplay of relationships and lessons learned from each - society, friendship, family, lovers, and the unforgettable people that help put us back together. This book highlighted just how human we are. I’m glad I listened to this book on audible straight from the author’s mouth. The book reminded me that I still have a few things to learn and I’m sure glad I didn’t have to break my vagina for that reminder.

HILARIOUSLY Raw and Honest Comedy

This book had me laughing out loud from start to finish! "Broken Bananah" is a brilliantly satirical take on modern dating and relationships. What could have been just another dating memoir becomes something truly special through the author's incredible wit and self-deprecating humor.
The storytelling is both cringe-worthy and endearing - the author doesn't shy away from the most embarrassing moments of his love life. His ability to find humor in even the most awkward situations is remarkable.
The narration is absolutely fantastic - the author's delivery and timing make this audiobook experience even better. You can hear him smiling through some of the stories, and his natural storytelling ability really shines through. It feels like listening to your funniest friend tell you their most embarrassing stories over drinks.

Highly recommended for anyone with a pulse!
