【rientalism, eroticism and modern visuality in global cultures】

We might not have rientalism, eroticism and modern visuality in global culturesthe joy that is Joe Biden and his White House bromance with Obama anymore, but the former vice president is gracing us with a book and speaking tour in a few short months.

Biden's book, Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship, and Purpose, is set for release in November.

To whip up some anticipation, Biden tweeted out a glimpse of what the memoir will look like -- front and back -- on Thursday.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

The book chronicles the year that he lost his son, Beau, to brain cancer and how the veep balanced his duties while in public office.

It all but promises to be emotional based on the title alone and will be accompanied by a speaking tour across the country, starting with a Biden appearance on Oprah's show SuperSoul Sunday on Nov. 12. The tour then continues in New York and for the next month.

Get your aviators out to cover any tears, because you'll probably get as weepy as Biden at a surprise Medal of Freedom ceremony from Barack Obama.
