I truly enjoy this novel, almost finished. It is hilarious, smartly written, entertaining and at the same time it touches so many of our modern day problems, our modern psyche. It is about boredom of everyday life as well as the continued feeling of helplessness in dealing with what the world throws at us, our increased expectations from life and others. So I mean it as a great compliment when I say this book is NEVER boring and would recommend to everyone, everyone.
