The dinner party -- The valetudinarian -- The pilot -- A night out -- The breeze -- Ghost town choir -- More abandon (or whatever happened to Joe Pope?) -- Fragments -- The stepchild -- Life in the heart of the dead -- A fair price.
These eleven stories by Joshua Ferris, many of which were first published in The New Yorker, are at once thrilling, strange, and comic. The modern tribulations of marriage, ambition, and the fear of missing out as the temptations flow like wine and the minutes of life tick down are explored with the characteristic wit and insight that have made Ferris one of our most critically acclaimed novelists.
Contents: Valetudinarian. -- Pilot. -- Night out. -- Breeze. -- Ghost town choir. -- More abandon (or whatever happened to Joe Pope?). -- Fragments. -- Stepchild. -- Life in the heart of the dead. -- Fair price.
