No one knows us quite the same way as the men and women who sit
beside us in department meetings and crowd the office refrigerator
with their labeled yogurts. Every office is a family of sorts, and
the ad agency Joshua Ferris brilliantly depicts in his debut novel
is family at its strangest and best, coping with a business
downturn in the time-honored way: through gossip, pranks, and
increasingly frequent coffee breaks.
With a demon's eye for the details that make life worth noticing,
Joshua Ferris tells a true and funny story about survival in life's
strangest environment--the one we pretend is normal five days a
week."""
