I Wish It Didn't Come to an End
submitted by Sara W on June 20, 2011, 11:48pm
I described this book to a friend as a sort of Catch-22 without the war and then found that a blurb on the back makes the same comparison. So much for my original insight.
This book glows with understated humor, perfectly-played pettiness and beautifully explored passages of realistic and touching human experience.
I laughed, I cried and I am waiting a while to start another fiction book because I know whatever I choose will disappoint me. I cannot think of a novel that better captures the hilarious preoccupations, tragic obsessions and unexamined longings of the modern office-dweller.
