Writer and former Austin resident Neal Pollack has tried his hand at many things, from satirizing pop culture to exploring the difficulties of being a "cool dad." His latest collection explores physical strains and not emotional ones - entitled Stretch: The Unlikely Making Of A Yoga Dude, the book follows Pollack's transformation from skeptic to master yogi. Pollack's name is synonymous with bad behavior and smart ass-ness, but Stretch chronicles a real love for Yoga, and Kirkus says, "Both sincere and subversive, Pollack will likely inspire more than one reader to commit to yoga." BookPeople encourages guests to bring their mats to this "book reading and mini yoga lesson."
