Beskrivning
Troubled by an inability to find any meaning in his life, the 25-year-old narrator of this deceptively simple novel quits university and eventually arrives at his brother's New York apartment.In a bid to discover what life is all about, he writes lists. He becomes obsessed by time and whether it actually matters. He faxes his meteorologist friend. He endlessly bounces a ball against the wall. He befriends a small boy who lives next door. He yearns to get to the bottom of life and how best to live it.Funny, friendly, enigmatic and frequently poignant - superbly naive.

Recensioner i media

Loe certainly has some of Salinger's lightness of touch, and often comic voice of his unnamed narrator recalls Salinger's Holden Caulfield. A charming debut novel.

    If you liked Catcher in the Rye, this is a great book for you. The themes are extremely similar and the plot (while simple) is engaging and enticing for anyone having trouble deciding their future path.
