Product Information
Tao Lin writes from moods that less radical writers would let pass-from laziness, from vacancy, from boredom. And it turns out that his report from these places is moving and necessary, not to mention frequently hilarious. -MIRANDA JULY, author of No One Belongs Here More Than You An absurdist short story collection about the woes of 21st-century living-from an author whose writing is moving and necessary, not to mention frequently hilarious (Miranda July) College students, recent graduates, and their parents work at Denny's, volunteer at a public library in suburban Florida, attend satanic ska/punk concerts, eat Chinese food with the homeless of New York City, and go to the same Japanese restaurant in Manhattan three times in two sleepless days, all while yearning constantly for love, a better kind of love, or something better than love, things which-much like the Loch Ness Monster-they know probably do not exist, but are rumored to exist and therefore good enough.Product Identifiers
