Description
A satire of corporate culture, job-hunting, and America's obsession with success, careers and status. It's the 1980s--the rise of the yuppie. A world of ex-hippie success gurus and millionaire cookie barons. Marxist revolutionaries and Ayn Rand cultists. Nightmarish job interviews and hellish subway rides. And at the corporate bottom -- the nameless and the faceless. Petty coworkers and cheap office parties. Secretaries and clerks and office drones leading lives of quiet desperation in a little gray cubicle in yuppie hell. In the tradition of Bonfire of the Vanities, Clockwatchers, Dilbert, and The Office. "A story of friendship, romance, and the search for the perfect résumé. Funny and entertaining." -- Carolina Review, December 2001 "Brilliantly twisted humor. The most hilarious American novel I've read this year. Entertaining and insightful parody of modern American mores." -- The Houston Review, August 26, 2001 "Satire of corporate life and personal greed in 1980s New York. An amusing work with clever period details and phrasing." -- American Outlook, Winter 2002 "Well-written, fast-paced, and unapologetically caustic in its humor. Check it out--you'll be glad you did." -- Midwest Book Review, May 2002
