This slim book covers his musings whilst giving his 6 month old daughter a bottle of milk.Baker has moments of real perceptiveness, which made you glad you picked up his book, but in-between those moments are chunks of writing which are as dull distractedly feeding a baby can be. In some senses that makes you appreciate the insights more when they come.He writes like no-one else out there and he writes well. This book does not feel like fiction, it feels very much real and honest. However, in the end, this is not a great book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Breath *by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on 11 April 2003* Room Temperature is certainly about a father and his child, but there is so much more. In typical Baker style, he examines minutia with elucidating commentary. This, in itself, is worth reading the novel; however, the quality that makes it transcend happens to be his ability to unite the entire book with its central theme: Breath. From the comma, to the mobile in his child's room, to tuba lessons, breath pervades - breath as its metaphor to remember to cherish every moment.I have never seen a novel so effortlessly and imperceptibly weave a central idea throughout a book. Read this novel for both it compelling insight but also for the extraordinary literary technique. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ How far does your mind wander in 20 blissful minutes? *by O***X on Reviewed in the United States on 8 November 2010* A quiet meditation on the life of a brand new father, and how the infant a couple brings into the world somehow encapsulates every memory, every thought, every ounce of love of the husband for the wife. The sound of bacon crackling = the sound of the narrator's wife smiling in bed. How happy would we all be if our moments in thought were spent deeply ruminating over the magical details that make living worthwhile? Why shouldn't feeding your infant from a bottle in a rocking chair be at once everything and nothing? --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/111052860-room-temperature-nicholson-baker](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/111052860-room-temperature-nicholson-baker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
